I'm glad you're trying to educate yourself, Michael. But judging from what you have been saying so far, I do tend to worry about WHAT you are reading. Even though Ayn Rand called her philosophy "Objectivism," there is nothing objective about it. And much of the stuff on the internet is suspect unless you know who they REALLY are. And even then, put brain in gear when reading it.

And as far as YOU accusing US of being "narrow-minded" and "smug" and all the other low-class verbiage, DO give it a rest. It makes you sound like a brainless twit who has nothing to say BUT insults. In short, a troll.

Just a helpful hint about how to make your way amoung civilized human beings.
