If there's one thing that Libertarians can do much better than Christians it's backing up their arguments. If you can explain to me one Libertarian argument that attacks what somebody said and ignores the basis of why it was said, please tell me.http://atheistforums.org/thread-16669-page-6.html Post 60 the last two paragraphs.
I will explain my viewpoint better. I believe that people should be free to set up their own website and run it in the manner that they choose. It's like private property. It's their website, they get to make the rules.
This freedom, this liberty, is not worldwide. In China, in certain parts of the Middle East, certain websites are forbidden (Like Facebook in China).
It seems that your argument is against free speech. You seem to be arguing that websites like this should not be allowed to exist. And you seem to be arguing that people should not be allowed to criticize certain ideas and books.
Your total and complete reverence of the Bible is what sets you apart ideologically from us. We don't view the Bible as a reference that you can use to defend a position.
The argument that one thing in the Bible is "proven" by something else in the Bible is meaningless to us.
