        I think it stands as one of the most Randian objective works as it is.
        A consortium of "species" adopts and enacts the philosophy which is found in The Objectivist's Ethics. Within the essay Rand expresses that which is immortal can have no values. There is nothing for or against the mortality. This group creates an indestructible robot and programs it with the "rights" to regulate force and improper use of life by an individual or group upon another. The programming is "mortal values" based. The robot cannot be influenced as it has no skin in the game.

        The purpose of Life is continuity; nothing more or less, on an all inclusive scale. Man must learn morality and ethics as we have Mind. Perception to conceptual thoughts, organized in a hierarchy, to guide our lives, as toolmakers, in equitable commerce. And then "one" perceives the concept of "lack" in comparison to another.

        All wars begin in individual minds with envy, frustration, anger and vengeance. These "percepts" are the unorganized unreasonable thoughts of the brute who has no command of language. Only through language skills may a human advance position and insulation from threat and peril. To be aware of the brute, warn the brute, and if necessary last resort....extinguish the brute.

          Language is being destroyed as we speak. Each graduating class starts adult life with a vocabulary smaller than the class before. One. young miss in my writers group was genuinely puzzled with my writing style. She actually asked me why I used so many words. I explained that words have shades of meaning, and my chosen words were exactly what I wanted to convey. She didn't understand that losing words from our language means that thoughts cannot be shared or expanded,, that concepts cannot be formulated.

            Entropy. Example: Teachers schooled in schooling. Kindergarten through collegiate license to teach in a classroom. No outside life from the schooling environment limits perception and conceptualization.

          " That libtarded 2008 remake was horrible!" Amen, Dino, amen! After all the other libtard crap spoon fed to the audience when finally Gort divided into the bug swarm stolen from the Mummy movie I broke out laughing. That was it for me.

          Edit add: "Gort looked like crap also." Indeed, the original Gort had WAY more class!

      Since another movie borrowed that line from the original "The Day The Earth Stood Still," don't ever mess up say that or you may raise an army of the dead.

        Except, stupid movie version, "V"arada.
        Raises another question regarding search engines burying "originals". When I began using the net as a research tool in, about 2003, and return to a subject 10 to 15 years later, I have to use some pretty extreme contextual measures for search criteria. I wonder how much info is passively/aggressively buried by the "popularity".....like childhood memories faded away.

          I have the original on DVD. Have been grabbing every old good movie I can find to keep for the day I cut ties with all incoming media. That day seems to be coming upon me at the speed of the John Galt Line.

            Me dino should do the same. Future global Marxist masters would not have a problem with extending our violence beyond our star system should they find other intelligent life forms to enslave.

            I have it on VHS yet. Got mom a DVD.
            As of Dec. 7 I realize reading comprehension is the most important skill a human can have. To practice mastery of language is what makes us human.

            Dan Appleton posted the following on Dec. 7. I think this is one of the most profound documents in human history.
            This is part one of four. https://metamind.quora.com/What-is-th...

            Excerpt: Chapter 1: The Photon Sea

            We Homo Sapiens rule the Earth. We have a superpower. That superpower is the human reasoning mind. The reasoning mind is a thinking machine. It is fueled by something we call expressive language. No expressive language, no human mind, no human personality, no human history, no economics, no politics, no science, no art, no humor, no reasoning, no God is or "I am." So, this story is about what makes our species special. It is about expressive language, the fuel driving our superpower: the reasoning mind.

            Expressive language is the Sapiens brain's means to create symbols representing electromagnetic impacts on its sense neurons, to give these symbols structure and meaning, to remember symbols, to assemble symbols into thoughts, and to put thoughts into words and sentences in a way that makes sense and is grammatically accurate. Expressive language is the stuff of the reasoning mind. Some say it is possible because of the FOXP2 gene, the language gene. I say it is a miracle.
