Rand was jewish. people shouldn't touch her stuff with a 10 foot pole.
Nope.

Rand was an athiest.

More precisely, she viewed God or a belief in God as unnecessary.
This is a person who decides, that because you disagree with him about hating Jews, you must be a Jew yourself. Nothing you say will affect his calcified little brain.

I did notice that.  However, Rand identified as an athiest, and made this very clear on hundreds of occasions. 

Therefore, he is simply wrong, so I corrected him.

Do I disagree with him about hating Jews?  I'm not exactly big on haters of any sort.  Rand was also, not big on emotional driven logic and viewed that as a tool of propagandists.  She was against religion because of the ways she'd seen it subverted to the goals and aims of the state in Russia.

Makes sense to me...
