The problem that I have with many who call themselves Libertarians is that they don’t support freedom of religious thought. They demand a political correctness on homosexuality that denies the freedom to support the religious tenets. They demand approval of homosexual activity rather than just tolerance. That is not very Libertarian.

I have also heard Libertarians say that no money should go to parochial schools because they teach religion, including money from vouchers.

We know what libertarians care about by what they fight for, notice that they have never been much interested in tobacco or the 45 years of nationalizing the automobile.

Wait until NAMBLA fires up next.

If being pro-all vice and condemning those who condemn vice is not Libertarian, then why do libertarians believe in that? I don’t know how many people on FR claim they’re libertarians but don’t adhere to the Libertarian Party platform (although trying to get them to be clear on which parts they don’t adhere to is downright impossible), so why call themselves libertarian (large L or small) if they don’t adhere to the LP platform?

There’s either lying going on or people need to think of another name to call themselves.
