“If someone doesn’t support no holds barred porn, legal prostitution, legal drugs, the entire “gay” rights agenda and abortion, why would they self-identify as libertarians?”
Because they like the idea of liberty?
“I don’t see how someone who follows the Bible could ever support the LP.”
Last I checked, God hadn’t registered a party preference. I imagine for those Christians who are also in the LP, they either tolerate the aspects of the LP they don’t like, or they don’t see it in the same way that you do. It’s not like there is any one-size-fits-all interpretation of the Bible out there.
While I’m not a member of the LP nor do I consider myself a libertarian, I think it presumptuous to call one or the other of our political parties the party of God or the party *not* of God.
“Let it be remembered that civil liberty consists, not in a right to every man to do just what he pleases, but it consists in an equal right to all citizens to have, enjoy, and do, in peace, security and without molestation, whatever the equal and constitutional laws of the country admit to be consistent with the public good.”
