Fair enough. I would not really consider myself to agree with some of the craziness that comes from the religious right, but I think a good case can be made for both economic liberty (with concern for the poor, taxation, etc) and Christianity. I think they are somewhat related, but some exploit this and some are incompetents.
Quote:I think you're blending religion and economic stances. There are quite a few atheist libertarians on this forum.
I know that there are atheist libertarians, God bless them. Anyone with the integrity to realize that a belief that permits an at best, extremely tenuous understanding of ethics and sees that and accepts that maybe they shouldn't become a socialist messiah wins my respect.
