I’m suggesting that because libertarians argue for limited government from an individualist standpoint they are not liberal.

If you can’t see that libertarians and liberals aren’t the same, then you’re almost not worth arguing with.

In my opinion, the democrats, republicans and libertarians are identified by these comments. Being a Christian, I place this in light of the social and fiscal elements of each of the three parties:

Democrats: We don’t care what you do, and we want the taxpayers to fund it.

Republicans: We care what you do, and we don’t want the taxpayers to fund it.

Libertarians: We don’t care what you do, and we don’t want the taxpayers to fund it.

The truth is... that as long as libertarians ignore God and appease every socially immoral thing that comes down the tracks... Christians will continue to see libertarians as liberals.

I know that the GOP is not living up to what they say they believe, but they are still a far better approach than the libertarians. I am all for seeing a new party form, as long as they are socially moral and fiscally responsible. The libertarians at large are not.
