The three values which men held for centuries and which have now collapsed are: mysticism, collectivism, altruism. Mysticism - as a cultural power - died at the time of the Renaissance.

It is the poison of death in the blood of Western civilization, and men survived it only to the extent to which they neither believed nor practiced it. ... Ayn Rand
war believe thinking
Two world wars, three monstrous dictatorships-in Soviet Russia, Nazi Germany, Red China-plus every lesser variant of devastating socialist experimentation in a global spread of brutality and despair, have not prompted modern intellectuals to question or revise their dogma.

They still believe that money is the root of all evil-except government money, which is the solution to all problems. Ayn Rand

Ayn Rand
