Ok ... I read some regarding Ayn Rand. I do not fully agree with her philosophy, but some things yes.

I am thinking that a 'moral realist' would best describe my philosophy.

She was the founder of the greatest philosophy ever: Objectivism.
She couldn't be rated on that scale. She founded the principle of man living with his hapiness (rational hapiness) as his highest goal, along with his own personal achivement. She also believed in all men being great and amazing human beings worthy of life, unless they rejected life. So she wasn't at all like Mother Theresa, who gave her whole life up for others, nor like Hitler, who was a primitive collectivist shit-bag.



Hey! Only killers should have death wished upon them, not peaceful old ladies!
My keeping happiness at the thought that she is dead is my rational self interest, carthage.

No, it isn't. How is it in your rational self interest to wish death upon someone who has done nothing to offend you? Death to a rational mind is the ultimate negation of rationality.
