(22,668 posts)4. You'd think that Ayn Rand's faithlessness would be an anchor around christian conservative necks
She says herself, that she only holds conviction, not faith. And yet, GOP conservatives, like Paul Ryan, make her writings part of his required reading for anyone who serves under him. Is he not then by default, faithless, an anti-christian, and anti-theologian? I conclude so. Or at the very least a hypocrite who wants to have it both ways.
