What could possibly be the rational reason to even discuss Rand unless there was a chance to meet women who like a little force to get what they need? (-:I'm very fond of Ms Rand's philosophy, not such a big fan of her skills as an author. She is long-winded to the point of distraction --- John Galt's speech in "Atlas Shrugged" is 32,000 words all by itself! She's repetitive, she doesn't just beat the dead horse, she grinds it into a fine paste, snorts it, excretes it, and has the waste treated at a sewage plant.
Her characters are less than one-dimensional (a fraction of a dimension) and the way she writes sex scenes is more at home in the pages of a pulp true-crime magazine from the 1950's.
Subjecting college students to "Atlas Shrugged" is the surest way I know to turn them into tree-hugging, hippy freaks.
"The Fountainhead" is also a much better book (made into a watchable movie) and is considerably shorter than "Atlas Shrugged".
A better read of Rand's, is "Anthem". It sums up her philosophy very neatly in a paltry 104 pages (Signet Paperback Edition) and contains no soda-masochistic sex scenes.
Well, imo Rand was anything but objective. Objectivism may be a valid philosophy, but for me it is as lacking as existentialism. But regardless, she made it impossible to separate her philosophy from her politics.What could possibly be the rational reason to even discuss Rand unless there was a chance to meet women who like a little force to get what they need?

Because, despite her obvious failings as a writer, Ms Rand's philosophy, called Objectivism, is one of the most well-thought out, empirically-based, and logical schools of thought ever conceived.
We celebrate Plato for his mysticism, Nietzsche, Hume, and Hobbs for their justification of Totalitarianism, but Rand is over-looked as a major philosopher because her ideas are supportive of personal freedom and critical of The State.

Dude pass the douche to the right...Did ya get a Gold Star for finger painting?1982 and with our school, we didn’t read crap books.when do you graduate ?Didn’t even read it in high school.the pig Pelosi Cheater Joe's imminent impeachment is on the horizon/ people are flocking from liberal blue states to fun red states where you get to actually to keep your paycheck, corporations will move en mass to offshore.. the cities burn, obama's civil war... Atlas shrugged, not just me. people are putting their income taxes in escrow at my suggestion, which is perfectly legal. makes it harder for pelosi biden and shumer from playing fast and loose and wasteful, with your hard earned money.
who wouldn't want to pay for climate change when their kids haven't been to the dentist for years ?

I didn't know anyone read Ayn Rand after high school.
Well, imo Rand was anything but objective. Objectivism may be a valid philosophy, but for me it is as lacking as existentialism. But regardless, she made it impossible to separate her philosophy from her politics.
Objectivism doesn't mean to be objective in all things or that all opinions are valid. Who among us doesn't allow our personal philosophy to influence our politics? Isn't the point of politics an effort to influence power in line with our wants and needs?
Objectivism teaches that rational decisions only come from the objective knowledge of what we, as individuals, see and sense around us (as does science). It rejects the group-think, and collective ideology. Ideally, no two Objectivists, will agree in all things. Their individual beliefs will be influenced not by what they are taught, but what they can observe for themselves.

Objectivism teaches that decisions can't be rational if not based on objective knowledge. Believing in something that you can't see observe (just because it feels right) isn't rational.
However, an Objectivist also believes that your opinions are fully valid for YOU. You are fully entitled to believe what you want to believe. Just don't try to sell it to me if it's not based on evidence.

Agreed.have you read anything by her... doesn't sound like it. no offense.
Extensively. I fully agree with her on matters of philosophy and her non-fiction works are actually quite good, if someone dry. I just take exception with the idea that she is a great fiction writer. She is not, for the reasons I listed above.
