Who Had the Better Moral Philosophy: Jesus or Ayn Rand?

 

Who had the superior moral philosophy: Ayn Rand, with her focus on rational self-interest, or Jesus, who saw morality as both individual and communal? On September 9, 2014, Ben Doublett argued in favor of Rand’s view whereas Cody Cook argued for Jesus. They were assisted by Carl Franco (the moderator), Larry Christensen (the sound guy), and Marco Otero (videography).
