No one is surprised by this if they have read Ayn Rand.

I have and I am. Ayn, like most philosophers, breaks new ground. They aren't dogma.

The philosophy of human individuality known as objectivism goes far beyond what Ms. Rand wrote.

What this idiot is writing is like saying that "for certain values of A, A does not in fact equal A". This violates a basic precept and invalidates his argument. He doesn't get to set the value of someone else's life.

Period.
