11. Devout Catholic my ass

The teachings of the Catholic Church and Ayn Rand are diametrically opposed (and I'm not a Catholic, btw, I'm Orthodox). Islam is closer to Catholicism than Objectivism is, yet anyone who described Mohammed as their idol, made his staffers read the Qu'ran and then claimed to be a "devout Catholic" would be laughed out of office.

Oh, and welcome to DU. I wasn't attacking you for describing him as a "devout Catholic". That's how he describes himself, and I don't think it should go unchallenged.
