Read Ayn Rand's essay "The Metaphysical Versus the Man-Made”: [ Ссылка ]
This 1973 essay explores the importance of seeing the existence of the universe as a given which needs no explanation.


These were Ayn Rand's answers to questions asked by callers to "Night Call" hosted by Dell Shields in 1969.

Is there room in your system of thought for a God? How can you account for the universe without God? How can you account for life and the wonders of the universe on the basis of accident or chance, without the concept of design?
