I don't think its correct that "capitalism" has its own bible. What happened with the Objectivists, and their big-business, greed-derived purpose, is one thing; capitalism is another. I think what happened is things got absolutely feudal, and as with all forks of human culture, Objectivism took off because it gave people what they wanted, if not what is needed. Cult systems work, which is the reason they persist in the first place, and the Rand'ists had all the ingredients for the cultural revolution they so desired: power, wealth, influence. Capitalism - the positive form of it, which results in prosperity - has been under attack through countless generations for a long time, but it is still the one '-ism' which provides impetus to deliver value, rather than attempts to defeat it. I've seen very little of value in Rand'ian thought - but I can certainly understand the position of anyone who wants to 'get into it', for their own reasons, and get some value from it. Reading such stuff is mental capitalism, after all ..
