Since it never came up in her lifetime...prove it.
Libertarian, or even objectivist thinking doesn't logically approve of perverse couplings.
There are a number of things I don't approve of about Ayn Rand--first of all that her objectivist philosophy requires atheism.
That doesn't mean she didn't have many, MANY wise things to say about government and freedom.
I don't like some of the things Jefferson believed too, like deism, cutting apart the Gospels, or miscegenation. That doesn't take away the magnificence of his thought and accomplishments in other areas.
“There are a number of things I don’t approve of about Ayn Rand—first of all that her objectivist philosophy requires atheism.”
Exactly. Many Christians love Ayn Rand while completely disagreeing with her on certain key issues.
I like to think of it this way: On federal policy and government, I am at least 95 percent in agreement with Rand, except that I am pro life. In particular, it’s scary to read bits of Atlas Shrugged in light of the current administration’s addition to regulation, vague statues, extraordinary power to government and quasi-government employees, etc.
On local government, I am closer to 80 percent in agreement.
For my personal relationships, I am about 50 percent in agreement, maybe less.
On my relationship with God, I have zero agreement.
She contended that Reason requires atheism.
