Ron,

Your statement today, see below,
was it just a cliche to replace
what is called thinking ?

<<I also understand that both capitalism
and communism, in their most extreme forms,
are equally undesirable.>>

My statement of "battle between good and evil"
describes an event
or whatever one calls injustice,
but i'm sure it does not describe the cliche
"Life is not fair."
as human life requires thoughts
beyond those of animals to eat and survive.

So using my good versus evil statement
to describe my understanding of life,
i will say that "capitalism and communism,
in their most extreme forms" represents
the struggle between good vs evil.

Now i present the writings Ayn Rand as the sourse
of my learning to arrive at above statement to
represent my understanding, and thus beliefs in
these matters. Now i ask for your source,
the one which others sources you use that add but
do not define your base of knowledge to arrive
at what you create your beliefs from.

You may state that you developed your concepts
from scratch, where your visual and hearing
facilities were translated directly into cognizance.

So Ron, either present your main source(s),
or if not, then a text of learning you created
like Ayn Rand.

In my posession in paper print is all she has written
and copywrited, for sale to the public. All except
an open letter she published in regards to the
Bobby Fisher and Spassky world chess match i have read,
and this i will later as i put it off due to me missing
out the opportunity to experience that happening,
as a week or 2 before the chess match i was in Reykjavik
Iceland staying at the same motel/hotel where it took
place, and would of extended my stay there if knowned.
So that open letter reminds me of a missed opportunity
and causes me to allocate resources to correct this mistake.
