What do you have to do to be a member of this Ayn Rand cult? Do you have to pay dues or what?

No, this is precisely what my article contends: the so-called Ayn Rand cult is just a flawed designation invented by Murray Rothbard. It was in fact a circle of Rand's closest associates, which frequently interacted with each other on the subjects of philosophy, economics, aesthetics, politics, and business.

No, but you are expected to recite the Moral-Liberal pledge to turn a blind eye to evil.

Just admit that some of her ideas seem quite valid to you and the Christians on Free Republic will grant you cult-member status immediately, with all the perks: insults, sneers, accusations, and dire warnings about how you're going to hell. If you're lucky, you'll even get an f.Christian post full of incoherent phrases, dots, and arrows, thus signifying gold member status.

Join the Libertarian Party and talk about setting up a commune on a deserted island where you can scrounge for driftwood to make crafts objects to sell to tourists. Don't actually move to the deserted island.
