Zombie-eyed granny starver. If those two wins, we're in real trouble. And I long have wondered how one can be a serious Christian and a serious Randian.
Alice, not anyone out of their twenties, except for Allan Greenspan and he was AWESOME for the economy. One tends to grow out of such ideological silliness.
Whatever the case may be, one thing is certain: there cannot be Christian Randianism. The Virtue of Selfishness and the Gospel of Christ are diametrically opposed.
I thought that I was a Christian and a Randian, but maybe I'm a just poor Christian and a poor Randian. Everyone agrees with the former, and ARI would certainly agree with the latter.
Rand referred to Greenspan, a logical positivist, as The Undertaker. How apt.
The Virtue of Selfishness and the Gospel of Christ are diametrically opposed.
You will likewise search in vain for the Gospel of Social Democracy. A couple of things we do know are not to give alms to those able to work and kings will take a tenth of all your gain. (If only.)

ReplyDeleteI will now agree with your post from yesterday about the possible Obama landslide. This is a serious tactical error on Romney's part.

ReplyDeleteTheistic Randianism. Now I have heard everything.

IMO, if one salvaged what's good from Objectivism, you could be a christian Libertarian. I think Objectivism is irreformable.
