Ayn Rand is one of the people who makes Atheists look bad. Her whole Objectivism philosophy is just selfishness. As an atheist, I don't have to be a selfish SOB and not give a crap about other humans. It is too bad that her philosophy gets confused with atheism. Which really doesn't have a philosophy or dogma to teach and try to push onto others.
