Uh Huh.
You talk a good Libertarian game, until your own Sacred Cow (Tax-Supported Evolutionist Publik Skooling) gets threatened.
And at that point, you become just another welfare-suckling Tax Leech. The Courts of the United States have Ruled that ATHEISM IS A RELIGION; but despite the First Amendment you STILL want the Publik Skools to teach your own Un-Scientific "creation myth", the Unproven Lie of Chemical Abiogenesis -- using Other People's Money, and imposing your Creation Myth on Other People's Children.
And then -- You have the unmitigated GALL to accuse me of "establishing the premise that the Laws of the United States are to be brought into conformity with Biblical law".... NUTBAG!! Was I not charitable? Did I not give you the opportunity to acknowledge that you don't even know what you're talking about?
I should think that we can agree that Murder (aggression), Adultery (breach-of-contract), Stealing (theft), and False Witness (fraud) are all Anti-Libertarian and should be Against the Law; in addition, the Hebrew term for "Covet" pertains to Abuse and Despoilment of Property, which though distinct from simple Theft should also be Against the Law.
AND THAT'S IT. That's the extent of the Magistrate's Biblical Duties, according to Theonomic Libertarianism -- the Punishment of Aggression, Perfidy, Theft, Fraud, and Despoilment. How can you, as a Libertarian, disagree with this?
Oh, that's right... you're NOT a Libertarian. You're libertine enough when it comes to letting Sodomites and Prostitutes and Pornographers have their Rights; but if we Christian Libertarians are willing to break with the Christian Reconstructionists, and go along with such a standard of social laissez-faire ~~ well, then, you'll STILL stupidly accuse us of being witch-burning Puritans, just because we want our children and our tax-dollars returned to us.
News Flash, Perfessor -- there has never been a single proven example of Chemical Abiogenesis, and there are ZERO laboratory experiments currently in the works which promise anything of the sort, and y'all Evolutionists continue to Force your Religion of "Promissory Materialism" ("We Promise that we'll find a Materialistic Explanation for Life Real Soon, Any Day Now") down the throats of Taxpayers who would be much happier having their Tax-Dollars back, and Educating their children in the Academies of their Choice.
Best, OP
The fact of the impossibility of spontaneuos generation is firm. Abiogenesis is impossible.
So far as isolationism, I am not, and I probably never will be.
One must always have the scouts out in any military operation. A commander who doesn't use and listen to his scouts should be court-martialed when he's out-maneuvered by his enemy.
As in capitalism, so in international affairs. I ASSUME the total depravity of other nations and their leaders. I ASSUME they're maneuvering to hurt me. I am stunned that you, an orthodox presbyterian, do not have that same view of human nature.
And, since I have that view, I have my scouts out. And when my enemy maneuvers against me, I preemptively retaliate.
It is the only rational position.
Bull. Read the decision.
Adultery (breach-of-contract)
Bull. Marriage is not a contract.
