    The rest of it didn't help. Is she one of those who skipped Galt's speech?

    It's all feel good nonsense for the immature, lazy minded followers that's been allowed to bleed the doers of the species. Taking care of those that won't take care of themselves leaves little time to take care of one's own needs, and is in actuality a justification for slavery.

    The article's author makes an erroneous statement that those who love Atlas Shrugged and the Bible should be "welcomed with open arms". Whether an Objectivist chooses to welcome theists with open arms is up to the Objectivist. :) If the Objectivist deems that not welcoming theists is not in his/her self-interest, then that is the Objectivist's own business to decide.

    Apparently, WSJ allows traffic originating from Facebook to view content without a subscription. I've updated the link in your post to the facebook link.

    The article isn't accessible past the first few sentences without a subscription, but it gets off to a very bad start. That contradictions don't exist in reality does not mean that people can't believe falsehoods, including contradictions; their ideas are not in correspondence with reality. That should not be "welcomed with open arms".

    Religion is not required for the exercise of altruism.
    All that is required is the will to do so.


    Given your thread title K, I imagine you will be hiding a lot.
