If you look at the Libertarian platform, there is little to separate them from liberals

The big difference is that libertarians don't believe in using the government to enforce moral systems. Rather, ideas about morality should slug it out in the open market just like ideas about business.

This is also what separates libertarians from fundamentalists.

Crime and murder are moral laws too. Do you think gov. should have any regulation on those?
