LOL! The fact there are no transcendent ethics floating in the ether of some supernatural realm of the imagination does not in any way impair our capacity to advance human rights and freedoms and moral behaviour! You are more than stupid if you think locating an ethic in some mythical realm changes the value of human acts! DUMB, DUMB, DUMB!

"Rand herself who had no qualms about committing adultery."

Adultery is supposed to somehow refute my assertion there is no such thing as a transcendent ethic?? Are you in idiot mode again?

"In an atheistic evolutionary world there is no "right" to anything"

Your ignorance is showing! :-) Evolution does not prevent people from using their experience, their intellects and their natures to civilize and promote human rights and freedoms. Look at the incredible advances we have made since separating church and state? Witch trials, slavery, Inquisitions--all falling before the heavy hammer of Reason! Would be dictators such as yourself reduced to squalling on the internet--no more than nuisances.
