You wrote to the good Father -

>>How so? I am. I did not cause myself. I am not self-existent. (Or is that your claim?) I understand. I percieve meaning. I see beauty. All
these things speak to me of something higher, something mystical. Even
John Galt, though he calls it 'magical', admits to the mysticality of
existence, of mind. And by reaching out to God, He answered me. You
may call it delusions or fables, but then we are at an impasse. That is God's prerequisite - belief. Your rejection of belief altogether has made it impossible for you to find God.<<

James, you have committed a great sin against the mighty Galt! John
Galt makes no such claim to the 'mysticality' of his own mind just as
he makes no such claim to his almighty big toe. Do no impose your
imagination into the concepts of the mighty Galt. Perhaps reading the
bible as you do has provided you with much practice in this.

Your reasoning is seriously flawed. You cannot employ the rules
of causation where no beginning is decernable. With no beginning defined, there can be no observable effect unless you choose to fill
it with fiction, which is what you have done.

Wasn't it your God that spoke "I AM THAT I AM". Of course, this
statement in your book applies only to the province of your God to
the enslavement of men. John Galt proclaims "I KNOW THAT I AM THAT I KNOW" - a statement so ominous, so provocative to you precisely because you KNOW how your own god did not think of it!
