Post Ayn Rand on Religion

An old interview with the brilliant Russian philosopher Ayn Rand by Phil Donahue and a few others.

Quote:
Ayn Rand was a Russian-born American novelist, philosopher, playwright and screenwriter. She is widely known for her best-selling novels The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged, and for developing a philosophical system called Objectivism.

Rand advocated rational individualism and laissez-faire capitalism, categorically rejecting socialism, altruism, and religion. Her ideas remain both influential More..and controversial.
