I started Heinlein at some point in my early teens with The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, loved it, and read his subsequent books with glee. I don't know about the details of his philosophies but I loved his attitude. Still do. I think The Moon is a Harsh Mistress was my favourite. I liked "The Sayings of Lazarus Long" too. I wasn't terribly impressed with his writing style, but there was a lot in the content to admire.
I think I already had the social and political attitudes in my head when I read Heinlein (mostly from Shelley!) but it was nice to get all that positive reinforcement.
