If Rush didn't think about himself then they wouldn't be on the Destiny in the first place. And the Destiny is Rush's selfshness. Figuring the ship is obessession and hence we return to selfishness
Rubbish.
Sure, Rush is obsessive about the ship but people really should think about why he dialled the ninth chevron beyond wanting to solve it the puzzle.

I read the theory that due to the amount of energy required to dial the ninth chevron, connecting to a nearby gate such as in the Milky Way or even Pegasus would likely toast the planet. What do you think of that idea?
Spoiler:
You should totally write that into a fanfic...
"Most people who are watching TV are semi-catatonic. They're not fully alive." - U.S. District Court Judge Timothy Batten Sr. Ronald Greer is also a medic. Your argument is invalid.

Secondly, I think that everything DigiFluid is good.
I get the feeling my disagreeing with you is starting to get up your nose. Look, you have one view of Rush but not everyone has that view. Accept it, move on. I don't have to prove anything just to satisfy your dummyspit.

But I don't understand your argument with Jel. You said that "He didn't want to see his dream slip away." is "Partly correct, mostly wrong." and you say you know this because "It's just basic science."
I fail to see the connection here.

Your arguement is kind of weak when you have nothing to back up your claim

I agree that he didn't want his dream to slip away; I just think, given the evidence in Air as to what he says and what is shown, that there's more to it than plain old selfishness particularly when how he is written and played doesn't match the view that he's only in it for himself. IMO, of course.

Well, he joined the project because he wanted to discover how to ascend (Time) and he has already stated that the ship is his "destiny" (Light). Other than that, I do not see why he would risk the lives of 80 people "for the greater good". Really. If it was for the greater good, he could have dialed Earth, and worked on the project again. But no. He was impatient, and his belief that the Destiny could be the greatest discovery doesn't fly anymore. why? Because the ship is several million years old, in poor condition, and exploring empty space. Whatever selfless motives he has came after he dialed Destiny instead of Earth.
Never, never, never believe any war will be smooth or easy...
... or that any man can measure the tides and hurricanes he will
encounter on the strange journey.
