I have morals. I use those morals to decide how I will live my life. However, I have no right to use those morals to tell others how to live their lives. Likewise, politicians have no right to legislate morality. So then, if someone rapes your sister, it's ok because the rapist has a different set of morals? The problem is that the public schools and unoiversities have sold us all a bill of goods: that moralitity is relative.

(Sigh.)

Did the rapist initiate force against my sister? Did my sister ask to be raped?

I think the answer is no.

OK, now, select the correct answer, if you can: the rapist is / is not justified in raping my sister under libertarian philosophy.
