In this episode of Functional Philosophy, I explain how values are neither subjective nor intrinsic, how they neither depend on feelings, as libertarians would have it, nor exist apart from any valuer, as the religious would have it. Values are objective.

Functional Philosophy is the show in which Objectivist philosopher Charles Tew helps you gain and strengthen the philosophical foundations required to achieve certainty, success, and happiness. If you're curious to see how Ayn Rand's philosophy of Objectivism can bring revolutionary clarity to your life, give it a listen.
