	The Ayn Rand Institute: Essentials of Objectivism
		Ayn Rand named her philosophy "Objectivism" and described it as a philosophy for living on earth.
		Objectivism is an integrated system of thought that defines the abstract principles by which a man must think and act if he is to live the life proper to man. Ayn Rand first portrayed her philosophy in the form of the heroes of her best-selling novels, The Fountainhead (1943) and Atlas Shrugged (1957).
		This is the choice that controls all the choices you make and determines your life and character."Thus Objectivism rejects any form of determinism, the belief that man is a victim of forces beyond his control (such as God, fate, upbringing, genes, or economic conditions).

		Metaphysical subjectivism is the theory that perception creates reality, and that there is no underlying, true, reality that exists independent of perception.
		This holding should not be confused with the stance that "all is illusion" or that "there is no such thing as reality." Metaphysical subjectivists hold that reality is real enough, and that physical objects do exist.
		In probability, a subjectivist would tell you that probabilities are simply degree-of-beliefs by rational agents, with no objective reality.

	Satanism and Objectivism
		First, Objectivism holds that metaphysics, that branch of philosophy which concerns itself with the nature of reality, determines the nature of epistemology (which is concerned with how man acquires knowledge) as well as ethics (which is concerned with valuing human action), politics (social ethics) and art.
		The assertion in Objectivism is that the use of force to cause others to submit to the will of the stronger or cleverer individual is "wrong" for the individual.
		Fourth, Objectivism is purely atheistic with a complete rejection of the value of a god in their metaphysics.

	Ethics [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
		The metaphysical component of metaethics involves discovering specifically whether moral values are eternal truths that exist in a spirit-like realm, or simply human conventions.
		Proponents of the "other-worldly" view typically hold that moral values are objective in the sense that they exist in a spirit-like realm beyond subjective human conventions.
		In addition to espousing skepticism and relativism, "this-worldly" approaches to the metaphysical status of morality deny the absolute and universal nature of morality and hold instead that moral values in fact change from society to society throughout time and throughout the world.

	Objectivist Art? - Objectivism Online Forum
		To a man who holds reality as knowable; splotches of red, yellow, and brown paint on a canvass is not a depiction of a fall evening, the art flies in the face of his epistemological base.
		The point being that while Objectvism holds that art is not entirely to be judged by the validity of the metaphysical message it portrays, representational art IS considered by Objectivism to be entirely superior to non-representational art.
		When one learns to translate the meaning of an art work into objective terms, one discovers that nothing is as potent as art in exposing the essence of a man's character. An artist reveals his naked soul in his work--and so, gentle reader, do you when you respond to it.
