  Dennis Hackethal addressed criticism #1631.

Ayn Rand claims that "The virtue of Rationality means the recognition and acceptance of reason as one's only source of knowledge," This is wrong, mainly because reason can only be used as a method of choosing between knowledge/ideas, not as a source of knowledge.

That quote is better but still not quite right. You’d want to end it not in a dangling comma, but in an ellipsis to indicate that you’re cutting the sentence short. Try changing it to:

"The virtue of Rationality means the recognition and acceptance of reason as one's only source of knowledge […]." This is wrong etc.

Then, in the section “Do the comments still apply?”, be sure to deselect the criticisms that your edit addresses.
