It's like talking to a brick wall.
I don't know how many times it needs to be said, but apparently it needs to be said again. Endorsing one person's economic or fiscal philosophies is in no way, shape, or form tantamount to some sort of ringing endorsement for other philosophies that person may hold.
Claiming the contrary is one of the easiest logical fallacies there is to debunk - unless the claimant is intractably and dogmatically unreasonable in their stance, as apparently many here seem to be.
It is a completely transparent motive as well to attempt to sway fiscally conservative Christians away from some of the strongest fiscally conservative concepts that exist in our world today - because they were concepts held and powerfully promoted by someone who wasn't a Christian - as if that is remotely relevant in matters of economic policy.
So let's break this asinine argument down:
- Ayn Rand was an atheist.
- Ayn Rand stridently supported conservative fiscal economics.
- Christians should therefore oppose conservative fiscal economics because Ayn Rand supported them.
Does any argument get more asinine than that?
