On the nature of empathy morality and relationships

Speculation: In any human relationship there is a domain containing one or more questions, or "Real-Time discussions," cf. Stefan Molyneux, that can destroy that relationship if the participants were to open a discussion there and pursue it without extreme care and caution, aka. empathy. There is NO "Jesus Christ of Objectivism" who is without the sin of evasion, somewhere in his psyche. The only real question is: are we seeking to gently and empathically penetrate this domain in our relationships, or are we evading doing so?

I think that Stefan Molyneux does not grasp this completely and neither did Ayn Rand, and they are in very good company.
