If my parents would leave the house, I would make little mini-movies with this webcam. So, for now, i'm stuck with taking pictures.

Tears well up in my eyes because my smile isn't enough. Euphoria lifts me so high above those who stand with their powerless guns of fear and envy, attempting to rid themselves from that nagging thought from the back of their minds which is so perfectly defined in me.

I'm retiring Wibah from the group because due to her belief, I would say she isn't allowed to be in the club. Elitism and Christianity are polar opposites and can not co-exist because one believes in hating knowledge and greatness and also believes in injustice.

My mind is going through the subject of selflessness at the moment. I'm starting to realize the absolute hypocricy of all who preach it.
I've known this part for a long time, to be selfless is impossible for the act of eating, living, moving and even the act of acting or deciding are all selfish acts. If you are to gain, it is selfish. Any profit that the act gives you is a selfish profit. To act for yourself is selfish.
So why is it that most christians I know have jobs? watch movies? listen to music?
The job is the biggest concern for me, thats the most selfish of those three. To earn money, to create, to produce. That is a selfish act beyond any other. Unless, of course, that the producer gives away the money as soon as it is earned to people it does not know or what the money will go to. Because if you know that the money would go to a good cause, that would mean you're working for a good cause. Which might make you happy. That would be selfish. Joy is a selfish emotion. The very act of being selfless implies suffering. Sacrificing yourself for others happiness or well-being. Even more bizarre is a lot of conservatives are christian or whatever christ/god worshipping world religion. Out of the two main parties, the conservatives are the most selfish of the bunch. Liberals tell us to give to others, welfare, charity and so on. So why is it that so many conservatives are christian while liberals mainly aren't?
This is a question I have yet to answer for myself but if I ever find the answer I will be sure to update.

This is the only fault I have found in Atlas Shrugged. It assumes people are consistant and actually practice what they preach.
Fortunately, I haven't met a single god-worshipping person who actually lives and thinks by the poison they spew.
But alas, it can only get worse.

Objectivist Ethics
Reason is man’s only proper judge of values and his only proper guide to action. The proper standard of ethics is: man’s survival qua man - i.e., that which is required by man’s nature for his survival as a rational being (not his momentary physical survival as a mindless brute). Rationality is man’s basic virtue, and his three fundamental values are: reason, purpose, self-esteem. Man - every man - is an end in himself, not a means to the ends of others; he must live for his own sake, neither sacrificing himself to others nor sacrificing others to himself; he must work for his rational self-interest, with the achievement of his own happiness as the highest moral purpose of his life. Thus Objectivism rejects any form of altruism - the claim that morality consists in living for others or for society.

I suggest to you all, the most elitist and enlightening of all books I have ever read. Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand.

I am less than a third through with the book and it has already done more for my life than any other book has.

Absolutely amazing.

This community needs more elitism.

Fuck socialism.
Fuck "anti-capitalist" idiots.
Fuck people who say I shouldn't judge other people.
Fuck hypocritical "religious" people who say they believe but then commit as many sins as possible.
Fuck hip-hop and fuck its supposed "culture"
I am above these things.
These things thrive on stupidity and irrational thought, this puts them below me and thus should be destroyed.

Fuck people who say "elitist" as its an insult.
