Libertarian atheists: part of the problem

[EgoRaptor]

I meant with the statement you quoted. Do you believe the current government is a government of the people for the people or not?

We disagree on the other things because you can't seem to accept that the Libertarian party exists and is in no way affiliated with the Tea Party or the Republicans. If I agree that "Libertarians" are the same as the Tea Party and Republicans, then you are correct and I'm not a Libertarian. But, then we have to come to some sort of agreement on what the "Libertarian Party" should be referred to as. In short, your argument is based purely semantics. You think the people who don't call themselves Libertarians are Libertarians, and the people who are calling themselves Libertarians are...something different for which you haven't come up with a word yet.

Conservatives like Ron Paul are not really libertarians, the word for a conservative with some libertarian positions is Fusionist or paleolibertarian.
