ABOUT THE ATLAS SOCIETY
The Atlas Society has been promoting Open Objectivism for the past 25 years. Their website (http://www.atlassociety.org) describes the concept of Open Objectivism as:

“Objectivism is not a religion with teachings defined by a sacred text like the Bible or Qur’an. Our loyalty is not to Rand’s words but to the truth of her fundamental insights. A commitment to truth and respect for independent thought must lead onward to new questions, new answers. Our scholars have produced insights in Objectivist philosophy, from the virtue of benevolence to the nature of knowledge, and more needs to be done.”

The annual “Atlas Summit” is just one of the many ways the Atlas Society works to engage the public with the ideas of Ayn Rand.

    So, is Freedom Fest being held at Planet Hollywood also or some where else? Plenty of hotels available and I would like to be close to both.

    I love Vegas. Hate meetings. The shows are different, but the meetings are always the same.
