In DIM you describe the three approaches to integration and their role in shaping Western culture and history. In OPAR, you describe Western history as the philosophic dual between Plato and Aristotle; a dual between other worldliness and this world. How do these two perspectives on history relate to each other?

I am alone in a hostile philosophy class. Occasionally, I get a positive reaction to some Ayn Rand ideas. However, out of class, the students have no respect for me, even the ones that seem to have better ideas. Should I stop speaking in class altogether? How do I avoid become a martyr while maintaining integrity and honesty?
