I take that back, you’re a good man. Apologies.

Don’t take someone at face value who says he isn’t a coward without looking where his attitudes take him. (Unless you are now using finely modulated irony here.) I haven’t tried to pick this entire discourse apart but some salient things strike me.

You can find maximal courage with a Jesus approach to things, which is not to damn anyone shy of their final appointment with God (and then it becomes moot anyhow). As a corollary don’t praise people but praise ideas and praise works, always remembering to give God the credit.

Be careful about the Libertarian Party with capital L and P. They are a thoroughly mixed bag. There are skunks in its punch bowl. I would desire, for example, it had some Christian guts which would repel the homosexualizers, meaning those who are not content to bugger one another but wish to bugger society to conform to their lusts as well. That does not make the LP’s nobler aspirations wrong, but without calling on divine power it is going to succumb to sin and become an evil thing. (This is true also for GOP and has already played out very strongly in the now virtually godless Democrat party.)

As for talking about being drunk that is a cheap shot.

So I have possibly disappointed you too, but I’m just trying to redirect attention where it belongs: heaven, not earth. Heaven should be sought, glorified, and its affairs incorporated into earthly ones.
