Isn't Obama usually keeping his religious beliefs in the closet, usually praying in one while facing Mecca?  Smiley

A little bit more seriously.  I would argue that Christianity, and Judaism, were initially more of a community based religion.  They were more about the community than the individual.    That had largely changed, even for Judaism prior to 70 AD, where it became a personal religion.  It went from the community being Christian or Jewish, to the individual being Christian or Jewish.

You can argue that Rand was very strongly opposed to the community aspect of anything, but I would not call it in conflict with Christianity (or Judaism) as the have been practiced since the First Century AD.
