"It’s a bad mistake logically to look at one woman who made herself miserable for whatever reason,,,and to conclude that her ideas were flawed."

You must have overlooked the part where I said that she had a lot of great ideas. My issues are not so much with Rand; in some ways she was a tortured genius who evokes my sympathy. My problem is with the people who embrace her and her notions with a virtually religious like zeal, and then feel compelled to denounce religion and attack any person who has anything negative to say about her.

Oh absolutely,,i probably didn’t come across right, but im chiming in with you. And i think you had a very sage point, as to the behavior of her true believers, deifying her. I understand this was especially rampant in the early 60s. Quite an irony there.
