Ayn Rand or Jesus: Christians and the Republican Party must choose

By Aerik Vondenburg

Republicans cite the philosophy and writings of Ayn Rand as an inspiration for their supply side ideology.

Rand advocated for a type of society that was ruled over by the most cunning and productive individualists of society. Egotistical Super-men who were not bound by the laws of religion and traditional morality.

Her philosophy of "Objectivism" promoted not only narcissistic pride and selfishness, but atheism.

She once said in an interview: (that can be seen below)
"I am against God." "I do not approve of religion."

To right-wing conservative evangelical Christians we say:
Who is it that you will align yourselves with?
Ayn Rand or Jesus?

NOTE: There was a video attatched to this but having two videos on the same page was slowing things down. You can either go to YOUTUBE and type in "Ayn Rand GOP Jesus", or copy and paste this link into your browser window:
