Ayn Rand, Mormonism, Atheism and The Republican Party

 

The GOP has assembled a ticket comprised of a non-Christian and a fellow who obliges his staff (all on federal payroll) to read the writing of a militant atheist who "hates God" and holds Christians in contempt.

For completeness' sake, I am appending the contents of another Rand post, "Ayn Rand: Atheist Cornerstone of The Republican Party," originally dated April 18, 2012

“Ayn Rand... made egoism the ultimate good. What Christianity labels as the unfortunate consequence of original sin, Rand saw as man’s natural and best state. Interestingly, while Ayn Rand’s atheism bothers conservative evangelicals, it seems to bother some of them less than... Obamacare.”
