"You do know that capitalizing entire sentences is considered SHOUTING" If you are a CHILD, yes... For me it is simply weight or strong weight but I am sure you do not have any clue what I am talking about so just run stupid stories in your head...that will work! "an individual subjects intention equals a subjective purpose, not a universally objective one that one can be imposed as an obligations on others" NOTHING can be "imposed" on others except through force. Don't be stupid. Your sentence shows just where you come from, doesn't it!! little mystic of force!!! When a person uses logic and objectivity to choose an intention or meaning, that person has chosen purpose. Purpose does NOT impose obligation on anyone! You need to stop believing you are a toy or a pet if you are to understand this... "Clearly you fall into the third category since you and Rand are trying to turn your personally and subjectively derived purpose into an obligation that others must follow" Let me make it clear to your dull brain by repeating what I have said to you hundreds of times over these SI years...MY OBJECTIVE (conscious/logic mind) PURPOSE is entirely apart from obligation. I am not the pet of some supernatural IDIOT that pushes shoot or kill or duck on some joystick. MY purpose is MINE--not some asshole walking me in the park without a doggy bag. I am like Mr. Sam (Bronfman)--the head of the table is where I am sitting. I am not on this earth to mumble curses at fig trees--capiche?? Probably a good time for me to remind everyone of Martin Luther (THE HERO) and the "Lies of the Jews" (available online). Just so they understand how abject stupidity and avoidance of truth plays out in real life. The Christian Holocaust was NOT a fun event--was it?????

You don't speak for all Christians anymore than Rand did for all atheists. As usual you are wrong again but in a strange way Rand actually defends your feeble position. Just Deserts: Ayn Rand and the Christian Right [6] In spite of the gap between Rand's popular fiction and non-fiction and the morality of the Gospels, there are strong similarities between particular dimensions of Christian right political ideology and Rand's thought. As we will see, Rand's own perspectives on gender complementarity and same-sex sexuality strongly suggest the morality politics of the Christian right. But moving beyond Rand's positions on gender and same-sexuality, Rand elucidates a mode of boundary production that bears fruitful similarities to that of the Christian right, even as she and the movement disagree on many particulars of ethics and the verisimilitude of religious faith. britannica.com
