Janice: You HAD to say. . . >>Hmmmm...a little late in the game to make these claims, Terry. You've been going on about Saint Ayn and the rest of your heros forever. When have I ever mentioned one? Let alone indicated that I believed every damned thing he/she said?<< Ms. Rand is not Saint Ayn, that implies religious faith -- of which she rightly had none. Was Ayn perfect? No. Who is/was? That does not diminish her greatness in any way. On the contrary, it makes it all the more remarkable that imperfect beings can even conceive of the concept of perfection. (Hint: one of the things that makes Man great.) >>And since when do I have a "philosophy"? Hey, I'm not a grandiose sort of person most of the time. News: it's quite possible to subscribe to moral and ethical values without ranting about it.<< All people have a philosophy whether they are aware of it or not. Some of the worst philosophies are those a person aquires by a process of "osmosis". >>There are, alas, a great many people "above" me, rightfully or not. That's life. But I don't necessarily have to tip my hat to 'em.<< When you learn that NONE are above or beneath you, then you will begin to understand the philosophy of the men who participated in the revolution of the Great Enlightenment. >>And there's no one above YOU? News of your nomination as King of the World hasn't made USA Today yet, far as I know...<< Haven't you learned yet that I am opposed to monarchies? :-) Father Terrence
