(1,013 posts)You say you are an atheist, that is your choice. So- Ayn Rand was an atheist, does that mean you like Mr. Ryan follow(ed?) the same beliefs as Rand? Her philosophies? Her practices?
How you came to your Values and Beliefs does not make you a Randian follower. (Supposedly part of Rand's system of beliefs was on some basis with a serial killer's view of the world compared to his.)
More likely you reached your conclusions not based on someone else's. Ole Marty did believe the world was flat, he also seemed to have a tinge of racism in him. STILL at the time Luther stood up for what wasn't popular in the Vatican. Surely the Vatican spoke the loudest over Luther. Yet centuries later, those Protestant Lutherans are still around, still stuffy and still finding ways to laugh at the stuffiness..."This is most certainly true."
