Mark Hamilton, I am following up on to my previous comment…. A creative civilization void of the rule of man will not kill the entertainment industry. Entertainment has a value… that is, if the entertainment is objective and based around man’s nature… and it feeds the ‘soul’ (soul in this context should not be taken to mean anything supernatural). Particularly entertainment expressed as objective art… whether that be a play, painting, film, music etc. Leonard Peikoff is very good on this in the book: ‘Objectivism the Philosophy of Ayn Rand. What will be void in a creative civilization is trivial art that has no objective value and is used as a form of escapism.
