My name is Esther, and as you got from the title I am a 13 year old girl from Utah (USA). Pretty self explanatory as to who I am. And I a BIG fan of Ayn Rand's work. :-)
Most look at me the first time and say "What is that stupid little girl talking about?" Well I am here to say that I may not be the world’s biggest genius (I know that for sure) but I am defiantly not the worlds biggest idiot, and that is a fact!
Capitalism, Free enterprise, is just a few things I love about Rand’s ideas. But my favorite is the idea of “MINE” it’s your do what you want to do with/to it, and NO one is going to tell me other wise, whether they like it or not. (well unless they fall out of line of the rules)
I also see Glenn Beck, Phil Robertson, and Dr. Ben Carson as everyday hero and role models.
I am also a firm believer in Bible. As being a Christian I can see and understand that with these modern times that not only do we have poor governments in the world. We also as humans are losing our sense of moral values/standards, as God as the Supreme Ruler of the Universe, and the ultimate rule maker. The mentality of today’s people is worsening.
~May God save the people~

    Esther,
    I also wanted to ask you-are your parents aware you found this site? Are they good with you being in here? Some posts are definitely adult discussions.
    One last question. Have you seen the AS movies and did you like them?

    Esther,
    welcome. You made a plea in your post. What are you looking for help with?
    You are starting at the right premise. "Mine!"
    Here is where things get tricky. "unless they fall out of the line of the rules." What rules do you think are essential for a country to operate and people to live peaceably? I am impressed with how well-spoken you are for your age. All the better to influence your peers who are still scratching their heads wondering what to think and when to think. I will tell you right now, you will disagree with some on this site-but make your arguments and ask your questions. We are always excited for a new Ayn Rand fan!

    Oh and also yes I am aware that some of the topics of this site is a little mature, but I will stay clear of those, won't get into something I do not know much about or maturely ready for. Thanks.

    Yes my parents do know. And "mine" that is a line from part 2 of AS (it was Hank who said it remeber when the institue of science (I think) wanted to get some of his metal after they said it was unsafe and proven wrong and he did not to give it to them beacause it was "his") And what I ment by "rules" is the human moral code. (no killing the innocent, no stealing, etc...)
    And thanks for the commments about me being smart. Don't get that from many people (that is because I go to a school were most of the people are stubborn communist/socialist/liberals who do not like the facts) :-)
    Sorry about my title I agree looking at it now it doesn't fit the message I was saying. Sorry if you thought different.

    Your perception of the reality going on in today's world is accurate. The cloud of deception is world-wide. That said, keep praying to keep clear of being deceived and trust your instincts.
