Anyone interested in John C. Wright?

Anyone interested in John C. Wright?

I, for one, would be very interested. What a tragically broken beautiful brain.

It's been almost a year and a half, but since you suggested the possibility yourself, I can't help but wonder: Was there some hint of a possibility of interest on JCW's part to participate in a diavlog with you?

I'm afraid not.

Yes, and I wouldn't mind if you talked about religion, but I'd rather the majority of the diavlog be about stuff that you're on the same page about.

I take the opposite point of view. If there is a diavlog with Wright, I would like to hear sustained discussion of religion, as I am curious to find out what Eliezer will say, in real time, to someone who converted from atheism to Christianity at age 42.

Besides which, these things are surely more interesting in general when they focus on areas of disagreement.

He writes that he had a sequence of visions, and that he doesn't blame you if you think he's out of his mind. That pretty much deals with any interest I personally have in his conversion.

Isn't he a religious nut?
