Though I am an atheist, often in particularly stressful situations I hear someone say, “God is looking out for us and will provide a way,” and I find that a comforting affirmation. The best Objectivist alternative I can come up with is to tell people there is always a solution to any problem. Is that valid?

A question from a man tortured by unrequited love: I don’t understand why it is important to me that this woman reciprocates my love. Her loving me would change none of the values that I love her for having. So why should her feelings matter to me?

Science fiction based on the scientifically possible is okay, but what about science fantasy presenting the impossible?

In a previous podcast you said that it is wrong to go against nature by undergoing a sex-change operation–that the metaphysically given is an absolute. But by this definition gender is not metaphysically given because we can now change it if we so chose.

In Ayn Rand’s Donohue appearance, Phil Donohue asks her if she is not tempted to believe in heaven so that she can see Frank O’Connor again. She answered, “I’ve asked myself that very question.” Since she is an atheist, why wasn’t she more emphatic and dismissive?
