What is the opposite of Altruist, is Rand that? Is Christianity altruist? Christianity could be argued to be egoist because it’s mostly about making ones own self right before God and not purely other focused.
And I think you are taking a pretty black and white view in something you clearly have cherry picked what you’ve read about. I’m not saying your wrong about what you are referencing, she is morally reprehensible sometimes, but not totally.

I guess I’m not as interested in whether she’s reprehensible so much as she’s completely incompatible with the teachings of Jesus. I can see how some of ideas might appear to make sense without Jesus’ teachings to contend with.

She is not COMPLETELY incompatible man you havnt even been reading what I’ve been saying or what Rand is saying. For a Princeton Seminary student I would think you had read Kierkegaard or the Bible

Some of one, all of the other.

I recommend “Works of Love” and “Purity if Heart is to Will One Thing”. Also I will say that where I find any author whatsoever to contradict the teachings of Jesus, I side with him. One should not be a James Taggert.

With Jesus, that is, particularly the sermon on the mount.
