Now that was funny, I admit, I laughed. All good humor ought to have an element of truth in it, and your reply had it. But it was also dishonest, and you know it was. Baring false wintess seems to have no importance to you.

Of course I could counter that Christians are either all hypocrites or closet homosexuals, teaching their boys that looking on women with lust is wrong (adultery). Only thing is that I know that such an exaggeration is equally not true.

Libertarians are the only ones that defend a person's right to discriminate in the conduct of their affairs. As such, it is the only political philosophy that defends Christian rights of association, to include organizing communities, with any restrictions so desired, except of course denying an individual the right to leave (quit) such a community.

We just don't believe that such restrictions should be imposed from top down. We believe such restrictions are only legitimate when they are voluntarily entered into from the bottom up. It is this understanding that has attracted Christians to the LP. The only party that in actuality is not anti-Christian.

So, my community can vote to ban gambling, and Libertarians wouldn't object?

How big can my "community" be before Libertarians start to take notice -- can my "community" be as large as a state?

Not true. If you believe in Hayekian economics, limited constitutional government and are a Christian there is only one party for you:
