  1. Belief in a "higher power" derives from insufficient courage to face the task of full individuation. Most people are afraid to completely "cut the apron strings" of their parents and look for the comfort of something to relieve the anxiety of having to make a life of their own. This is a generalization, of course, but fear of the unknown is very powerful. When a person is offered an explanation that addresses this fear, he grasps for the feeling of safety that the family collective once provided. God is his new daddy.
  2. It is obvious that you are altogether unfamiliar with Objectivism and, hoping not to be seen as delivering a "low blow", I would ask what prompts you to expose yourself in this forum?
  3. Ooops. s/b: I am able to detect this as I am becoming "increasingly smarter" as I type. Maybe not too increasingly.
  4. You know, June, when I read your post it seems that there is no "June" in there. Your message is hopelessly obfuscated by your resort to eye-stopping terminology. I am able to detect as am becoming "increasingly smarter" as I type.
