took at look at their website and I didn’t like what I saw. Those two kids have a very limited view of individual rights...they’ll use the rhetoric when it suits them, like advocating the refusal of medical care to prayer, but it’s clear they want the US to be an official Christian state with the Bible as law.

Wow - did we look at the same site ? Could you be more specific in describing the limited view of individual rights you saw, and the call to establish a theocracy ? I didn't see those...

There was no specific call to establish a theocracy. However use the search function on the blog. Several articles call for laws against porn, homosexuality (not just gay marriage), and other ‘sins’.

There is a HUGE difference between advocating a particular lifestyle and mandating morality by law. A principled understanding of individual rights would hold that unless someone is initiating the use of force against another, that person has the right in preforming any action they want. You can broaden what you mean by force but the principle remains the same.
