Quote by: GodBlessAmerica This is all just an opinion, but I don't think you said anything any different than I did, you just said the same thing in Libertarian speak.
I once had a thread elsewhere where I was pointing out how pathetic and bad drug use was and I had libertarians telling me about their favorite drug use, even in front of their children.
I agree with you, they are not conservative.
From what I read of them, they come off as socially liberal and politically they lean heavily toward anarchy with their do what feels good philosophy. |
This just illustrates why you shouldn't be addressing this subject, other than to profess your ignorance of the topic at hand.
Libertarian should be defined as fiscally conservative, and socially libertarian. ( Libertarian with a small L, as in the opposite of authoritarian. )
I am also consistantly finding that many God's advocates are at odds with one of God's most benevolent policies, that of "free will". Far too many hard core religious people seem OK legislating their opposition into a corner with draconian policies so that people lose the opportunity to exercise that free will that God so graciously provided.
What do you have against people being able to decide for themselves how to live? ( The libertarian philosophy )
Perhaps you could quote from the bible where God instructs His followers to become political animals, and legislate their view of reality upon their less willing neighbors? See, I was always under the impression that politics was not the type of thing God's true followers were concerned about, with that dedication to God, and all.

Quote by: GodBlessAmerica They tend to love to name themselves after dead patriots which IMO probably have those dead patriots rolling in their graves.
They can be entertaining, but I can't take them very seriously anymore. |
Judge not, lest Ye be judged...
With a mind so clouded by religious propaganda, I'm not surprised that a philosophy of logic, and reason does not appeal to your way of thinking. See, the liberarian philosophy was born in the Age of Enlightenment, so that must be quite at odds with the reality you are out to create for everybody.
I am familiar with the "turn the other cheek" part of the bible, but again, where in the bible can I find the "legislate ones opposition into the corner with draconian, authoritarian policies" sermon?
