>>What are the fundamental laws or truths that John Galt believes in, and that shape his philosophy? Define ethical rationalism. How old are you? <<

John Galt knows that all life forms have inherently a mathematical mind. That all life forms must struggle to define reality (utltimate truth that exists) in order to survive. That man, which sets him uniquely apart, has, in addition, the ability to negate his own mathematical mind.

This idea is the foundation for all of John Galt's principles and
of which are his own.

Ethical rationalism is the knowledge that ethics can only be derived from man's own power of reason.

John Galt is too young for his wisdom and too old for his nature, Delbert.
