  1. Rayfan87, may I recommend a box of latex-free rubber gloves? You definitely don’t want to get any tofu on you. The stuff is toxic, particularly to men. Tofu produces an estrogen-like compound in the human body and causes manboobs.

  2. just because she said “some things” that are true, worth repeating or even helpful does not take away the FACT that Ayn Rand’s personal Philosophy is the foundation of the Satanic Bible by Anton Levay and the foundation on which the Church of Satan exists. Satanism stands on her shoulders!

    Also there are many videos on YouTube with Ayn Rand saying,
    “I AM AGAINST GOD”
    “I DON”T APPROVE OF RELIGION”
    “I REGARD IT AS EVIL”

    When asked if she was ‘out to destroy our Judeo Christian Religion’ Ayn Rand said, “YES!!!”

    To follow her, to drink her words like milk, to dance around the Ayn Rand Alter, how can that not be a Pact with Satan?

  3. Hm, very interesting ideas you have there, Carpenter. But I’m a bit unclear on a couple things here. First of all, what do the quote marks around “some things” indicate? Obviously, I’m missing out on some brilliant insight here, because I simply can’t decipher why you’d use quote marks there. Are you quoting someone? Are you quoting *Rand* herself? Or are you indicating that by “some things” you don’t really mean “some things” at all? If so, what do you really mean? Help me out here, your keen intelligence clearly puts you light years ahead of me.

    Also, what is an Ayn Rand Alter? Sounds like some kind of fancy mathematical term.

    Oh, also, could you perhaps explain to me the evil tenents of Anton Levay’s version of Satanism and how it relates to the practice of worshipping the evil being known as “Satan”?

    I’m just dying to be enlightened by a theologian of your obvious magnitude.

    Yours truly,

  4. The question is, are Carpenter’s rants true?

    Are there

    many videos on YouTube with Ayn Rand saying,
    “I AM AGAINST GOD”
    “I DON”T APPROVE OF RELIGION”
    “I REGARD IT AS EVIL”

    When asked if she was ‘out to destroy our Judeo Christian Religion’ Ayn Rand said, “YES!!!”

    ?

  5. Yes, Oppo, it’s true: Ayn Rand was no fan of religion. This is common knowledge, hardly revelatory. Though, she certainly didn’t speak in all-caps nor did she somehow end her sentences with multiple exclamation marks. She wasn’t a very excitable lady.

  6. yes
    yes
    yes
    Those videos of Ayn Rand saying she is AGAINST GOD exist. I’m sorry but its true.

    Also the relationship between the Church of Satan and Ayn Rand exists too. It’s very sad but very true.

    You guys couldn’t have picked a worst role model to have. Libertarians literally worship at Ayn Rands unholy Alter. You have made a false God out of one of the Devils chief servants. You’re looking for salvation in the words of a demonic Prophet who served the Devil.

    Its sad.

  7. “You got lucky and picked an excellent quote, Harvey, but we should not drink all of Ayn Rand’s words like milk. My words, on the other hand, should be drunk in deeply like soymilk from my manboobs.” #ShorterCarpenter

  8. @4of7: yeah but if you pull at that string then we’ll also have to explain what “literally” means, and the difference between possessives and having multiple Ayn Rands, and so on. So, we’re probably better off leaving that string be.

  9. @18 CarolyntheMommy: The effects of soy’s phytoestrogens are not entirely clear, but looking at cultures with high soy consumption might answer your question. Would you like the breast size of Chinese or Japanese women?

  10. “To follow her, to drink her words like milk, to dance around the Ayn Rand Alter, how can that not be a Pact with Satan?”

    Maybe… because I don’t believe in Satan? While many Christians tend to go Conservative, not all Conservatives are Christians.

    Which is fine, if you ask me. You do not have to hold any particular religious belief to believe that our Federal government has ballooned to out-of-control proportions, that “letting the government handle it” leads to bureaucratic inefficiency at best and tyranny at worst, and that a man ought to be free to earn his own keep, make his own choices, and be responsible for his own actions instead of funding a nanny state. Rand’s religious beliefs, or lack thereof, do not invalidate her views on capitalism and government.

  11. I don’t know if we have a symbol for tofu yet, but since all the tofu I’ve seen comes in cube form:

    [] [] [] [] to Carpenter.

    / Has everyone here been worshiping Ayn Rand and not telling me? Is that what the hippie sacrifices were all about?

  12. Blaming Ayn Rand for Anton LeVay’s deliberate, corrupted misinterpretation of her writings is like saying that Christianity is worthless just because Carpenter doesn’t know his Bible from a hole in the ground.

    [] [] [] []

    *pelts Carpenter with tofu*

    Be gone, troll!

  13. Whether you’re a Christian or an atheist, it’s all about philosophy and morality – and in our case, philosophy of government and the appropriateness of law.

    Why do so many people (even here) not understand this?

    I’m not interested in your religion (a private matter). I’m interested in your public, political philosophy – that affects my freedoms and my life.

    Atheists like Harvey – and Christians like Frank – understand this – which is why people like me (you can’t even guess my religion) still hang around IMAO.

    If you’re confused about any of this, just remember: there are many Conservatives who are atheists, Libertarians who are Christians, Republicans who are Jewish, etc, all moral people who you would want for neighbors because they share your moral code.

  14. @32 – Yeah, but I’m trying to cut back. Commenting interferes with work and farming. Also, I try hard not to discuss religion on public forums, although, privately, I love the subject. Cheers.

  15. so she’s very right about a lot of things but probably wrong on some. And you want anything she said stricken from the world?
    Even Chris Christie was very right about some things, is why you’ve heard of him. He’s very wrong on a lot of other things but you’d like nothing better than to elect him president, right?
    If I could identify tofu you’d be getting a faceful.

  16. Naaaah, Jimmy’s a Tridentine-Orthodox Rosicrucian Mennonite.

    Which just means that he puts a schmear of peanut butter on his matzo cracker on Fridays instead of fish, and washes the lot down with Guinness instead of Merlot like the riotous Presbyterians do.

  17. Since Harvey’s told me I can dispense Bacon on my own I’d like to do so to Jimmy for todays grasp of reality posting. Reality hugging bacon to you Jimmy boyo! Be careful though most on the left and even some on the right don’t want to see reality for what it is. Be strong.
