Atlas shrugs, we the living and the Fountainhead all helped to shape who I am. I read them a zillion years ago and only recall certain small aspects about her philosophy. (A is A objectivism etc.)She was a brilliant mind and those who only get the atheistic part of it have missed much of her philosophy which is a slight variation of free market capitalism, IMHO.

The other problem with Randians (from the little I have seen) is that they reject compassion altogether.

Don't know if this necessarily derives from their atheism, as you can find hints of this among Rush Limbaugh's ("talent on loan from God" therefore not a atheist) discussions .

Cheers!
