Before you leave, perhaps you could enlighten us in to what you believe a Heathen Libertarian Christian would believe. Heathens are not atheists, but are generally people who worship gods that are not in the Judeo-Christian tradition. So if you claim there is, in fact, a "Heathen Libertarian and Conservative community", I don't think I've ever met one, much less visited their communities.
So where is this community and what do they believe in?
Do they have Holy Scriptures?
Do they have a systematic theology?
This could be an interesting thread.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that they smoke A LOT of pot.
Well, before I’m zotted...
Heathens are not Christians, they’re polytheists and follow the gods of their tribe. The traditional religion of their folks.
Heathenry doesn’t have Scriptures. It has lore: From religious texts, to epics of the better folks of their tribe, to ancient texts dealing with how religious worship was originally performed.
Its focus is orthopraxy, not orthodoxy. Do the rites well more than “think the good dogmas”.
As for their libertarian community, the vast majority of Heathens I’ve met were libertarian.
The basic moral code is based on self-reliance, industriousness, loyalty to gods, tribe, family and friends, hospitality, honor and courage.
It doesn’t have a purity code or a concept of “sin”. Some things piss the Gods off, but that’s because they’re traitorous or cowardly, not because they are “impure”.
That moral outlook makes most Heathens predisposed towards libertarian thinking: “Do your own thing, don’t rub it in my face, don’t disrupt my folks and we’ll be fine.” and sorta conservative positions in economics.
