Ninety miles from the South Eastern tip of the United States, Liberty has no stead. In order for Liberty to exist and thrive, Tyranny must be identified, recognized, confronted and extinguished.
The problem with Ayn, is that atheism has no basis for rights at all, human or otherwise. If there is no God, then at best, or worst, rights are granted by whomever has the power to grant rights for as long as they maintain the power. Atheists, militant or simple, simply have no logical basis to claim rights not subject to mundane forces of nature or from men, which means all rights beyond physics are mutable. Either the mob through democracy or elites through superior fire power decide who can do what. Unless God is real. The only choices.
