Seeing that Homo sapiens are and will always be primates, I guess that means there will never be a time we'll all accept Rand's ideas.
But who knows, maybe a race of Homo superiors or some other sort of Übermenschen will come along in a few million years who will be more receptive to Rand's ideas.
Thank-you very much for quoting me out of context. I was really wondering whether or not this website had any integrity at all after reading some of the grotesquely illogical ideas, but this post really sealed this website's identity of being completely without merit.

Sounds pompous and like something a real tool would say.
Essentially the point of your comment was to somehow to discredit my argument. You could have criticized my thesis for being unfounded or invalid, or you could have used defamation. You chose the latter. When you decided to use personal attacks as oppose to addressing the substance of my argument or producing evidence against my claim, you used an ad hominem argument.

Ironically, I'm not even an Objectivist.
Herbsewell you are a pompous tool.
I would absolutely love to hear the justification for that ad hominem.

A description is not an ad hominem
Also you have no idea of what an ad hominem is. Typical randroid.

That's certainly quite a coincidence.
