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

This is a debate I took part in with an Objectivist named Ben Doublett. I emphasized the relational nature of humanity since we are made in the image of God as well as the fact that Christian morality is rewarding and doesn’t require sacrifice for no good reason. I also tried to bring out the arbitrariness of self-interest as the primary moral motivator and the lack of grounding for objective morality on Rand’s view. Great debate!
