I see myself as a Constitutional ‘originalist,’ a social and economic libertarian, capitalist, pragmatist, and anti-federalist in the 1787 way, and a moral conservative Christian.
Unless I am misunderstanding your post, you cannot be a social libertarian and a moral conservative Christian.
Those two characteristics cannot co-exist in the same body.

Unless I am misunderstanding your post, you cannot be a social libertarian and a moral conservative Christian. Why not?
Wouldn't this essentially boil down to recognizing that others are their own moral agents and, ultimately, responsible to God?

Yeah I was kind of wondering about that myself.

"Unless I am misunderstanding your post, you cannot be a social libertarian and a moral conservative Christian. " Sure you can. You just don't demand that the government force everyone else to act like a moral conservative Christian.
