Sorry for the confusion. A person's primary value should be himself. His value to others is what he contributes. I don't expect you to value me, except for what I may contribute, through my work or writing or whatever, to whatever you value.
Same question as I asked scientism on the other thread: if I started torturing a randomly selected 8-year old child, would this bother you? Assume the child has never contributed anything important, and that my torture will stop before it kills him or scars him so badly that he can't contribute in the future.
