Yes that is an excellent point. I fail to see how Ayn Rand proving that what Ayn Rand said is correct is somehow brilliant. "I thought about it twice" therefor it is correct. What if the premise was wrong..then you could think about it a million times and guess what you would still always be wrong.

Ayn Rand intentionally never answered the question of where the idea that something is desireable versus undesirable (read good versus bad) She left it open.

My ultimate problem with Thintwice is that he (Just like Ayn Rand) Makes these absurd leaps in logic that have no basis in fact. "a self-exam far superior to Christains checking their consciences" I get tired of detailing word by word how what he is saying is utter nonsense and then not getting a reply,unless it is to take something I said out of context and ridicule it, so I wont bother replying to that one but he always makes these outrageous comments such as that and then expects his position to hold water. Why is Ayn Rand verifying for herself that she still thinks the way she thought before somehow vastly superior to how christians think. I would also like for him to explain to me just what it is that he thinks christians think. He demostrates constantly that while he certainly has down some of more obvious anti-christian mantras and while he certainly is capable of pointing out some human failings he nevertheless has not demonstrated even a working knowledge of exactly what the philosophy of christianity actually is. Ayn Rand never understood it either. It was what lay at the root of her problem. She was hypercritical of people whose reasoning she ultimately did not understand. How could she? I dont blame her. She was just wrong about it.
