How exactly can anything said in this video lead to serenity? And what attitude do Objectivists have towards emotions that disturb our serenity....like, for instance, anger, hatred, bitterness, discontent, greed and so on?

I love Ayn Rand's fundamental ideas. I can't seem to reconcile myself to the theory of laissez faire however. I think living close with the land is a healthy life physically and spiritually ( psychologically). We have no connection to all the beauty of country living. Cities just seem to breed irrationality, but then again, would it be better or worse if totally unmixed economy??????????????

What is that word at 5:16? "Luciferously?" That wouldn't fit the context, so I don't think that's it, but I can't figure out what if would be.

@shamgar001 "They will answer,
'Lord, when did we see You hungry, thirsty, or sick and did not take care of You?'
"Then He will answer,
'...when you did NOT do it to one of these Poor,
...even the least of them,
...you did NOT do it to Me.'
There are statements like this in the old testament too. Obviously if god has commanded you to do good for one another, you're not just doing it for the people, but for him.

@shamgar001 Isaiah 10:1-3
"Woe to those who enact evil statutes and to those who continually record unjust decisions so as to deprive the needy of justice and rob the Poor of their rights." Matthew 25:34
"Then the King will say to those on one side...'Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, thirsty and give You drink? And when did we see You a stranger and invite you in? '...when you did it to one of these Poor, ... even the least of them, ... you did it to Me.'

just when you think serenity in our time is unachievable, crystal clear logic comes to the rescue.

"Stagnant barbarism" of the humanities? Oh, lordy! There is something distinctly cultish in this exaltation of Rand. A person who approaches the world honestly and empirically would dispense with Objectivism no less quickly than they do Marxism, Libertarianism, Catholicism or any other doctrinaire ideological trip.
