OF SPECIAL NOTE: THE CURIOUS CULT OF AYN RAND. "Believing the Sermon on the Mount to be positively evil, she preaches to mankind a
doctrine of natural selection, or survival of the fittest, symbolized by the dollar sign" (Page 98). [Although not very accurate in its facts (For instance, this article is the source for a supposed comparison of the dollar sign and the cross as symbols, something she never compared. Plus, she's the opposite of a 'cult'.) But this article is one of the earliest featured articles about Ayn Rand and her writing, and her lectures. Photos include a student asking a question at NBI, and Ayn as she is speaking. PLUS: a photo next to the statue of a PROUD Lion, her favorite animal! SEE ABOVE and BELOW!]
