Okay, you and I say "limited government" etc. And what they hear is "no-fault sodomy, hetero-nookie, abortion, and legal drugs." Most of the young Paulites I've met are radical individualists, unlike Tea Party types—who are morality-based, community-building volunteers, and mostly older.
I think we can convert many of the kids eventually, especially as they grow up, but as a group, they are foremost very ticked-off, socially awkward kids.
But kids from, mostly, agnostic houses who are learning morality from popular media and universities are not going to be open to socon messages. They just are not--so what do we do -- leave them as low fruit to the radical left?
I say, we grab them where we can and as you said, as they age and have life experience, they come to our side-hopefully. At least though, they get the message of limited government and liberty somewhere because if we just leave them to the leftist controlled media, schools, universities, entertainment, popular culture and, now even chruches--they will never get it.
