re: #722 iceweasel

You stated it authoritatively. You haven’t even come close to owning up to it, instead you’ve done everything you can to dodge it. Theft is not trading. You could have easily owned up to not being as familiar as you sold yourself as; but instead you continuously questioned my knowledge of the philosophy. You continuously stated that you knew objectivist philosophy better than I do, but somehow got the central tenet of the ethics completely backwards. Then you throw up the straw man that I said Ayn Rand didn’t argue against altruism? You can bathe in the sympathy given to you by others, but seriously; you took this discussion off the path of a reasoned argument by misrepresentation and sophomoric dialog.
