What does /lit/ think of Roger Scruton? Anonymous Thu Dec 5 08:06:40 2019 No.14292250 [Reply] [Original]

He seems like quite a chad, both philosophically and personally speaking. Pic related is him with his second wife.

Depends on what you want to read about. Start with Spengler and Evola's Grail Mystery. Scruton just shitposts about >muh beauty but can't find the gumption to say what beauty is. Any Neoplatonist can finish that thought for him in a manner more satisfying than just pointing at a painting on the BBC and saying "this is more beautiful than ugly modern art." Yes Rodger we know.

>>	Anonymous Thu Dec 5 17:08:46 2019 No.14294496 >>14293835 Does it make a difference whether or not he describes the description of beauty as you expect him to?

Watch the documentary the first poster above posted every single one of his arguments for God are laughable even for a theist. A 10 year old can do a better job. Also the akes money from tobacco companies without telling anyone and then writes articles for them saying how smoking is good lol
