  1. This is a very interesting topic so I thought I would give my thoughts however valid they are, is up to you. Rand is the smartest individual I have ever heard in my life. Frank Zappa the musician who was very fond of Rand and was himself one of the most intelligent people of his time. Zappa said " you have to get into it before you can get out of it". I find this a profound statement indeed, because its saying something with out really saying anything at all kind of like Rand. Most individuals in the world don't think objectively, and its not because they don't know how to its because they choose not too. Rand fell at this one as I can see most of you do as well, a rock star like Zappa poked fun at this objectivist thinking and logical reasoning because it sucks the life from individuals. Ask your self one question does reading all these Rand books and study theories make you feel any better at the end of the day. Do you really think you are going to gain the knowledge to crack the secret to life? In your present day culture which you exist your going counterculture. Most of the world doesn't care about this Objectivist thinking so the individuals you try and teach and influence are going to die off just like and your analytical thoughts. I believe there is a worse thing then people who don't know how to think, its people that analyze their own lives without realizing that their own lifes are stake and that their life becomes wasted. Rand and all are truely great thinkers but is it a little strange to be 25 years old, still living at home or as a poor bastard reading Rand books and telling everyone one about things that are of no real solid substance in our society today. Wake up and have a little fun, meet a girl and burn your computers find that you only have one chance at life and stop Analyzing something that you have no control of. You live and you Die everyone does what you think in your head makes no difference its what you do and experience that memories are made of here on earth and I doubt some Rand book is going to give you a warm fuzzy feeling.
