The only solution known to science is to provide the patient with an isolation room, where he can endure the acute stages in private and where food can be poked in to him with a stick. ~ Robert A.

I've never read much Ayn Rand. I remember overhearing a conversation between two friends about 20 years ago (they are atheist) about Atlas Shrugged and they dismissed me by saying I would not be interested in it ... knowing of my Christian leanings. So that is my question ... how do you reconcile your Christian philosophy with Rand's Objectivism? I've never had a problem understanding atheism, because that is the negative of theism. Most atheists are angry with God and have issues they need to resolve. Either they are willing or they are not. It's not a big deal. But I think the bigger problem that many Christians might have to resolve with Rand is her Objectivism ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Objectivism_%28Ayn_Rand%29 ). What do you think?
