One can be a libertarian and be a social conservative.

False.

For example, Ron Paul, who everyone here loves to hate, is very much anti-abortion.

No, he's personally opposed, but pro-choice by state.

But he sees it in the proper context that big, activist government has destroyed society’s role to limit abortion, which society once did many decades ago.

Abortion is MURDER, it's not society's role to end murder, it's GOVERNMENT'S.

And I don't even know where you get off using the term "limit," do you also want to "limit" rape, arson and robbery?

Indeed, we are faced with a situation now where big, “progressive” government is in the business of funding and supporting abortion.

Another thing that Paul is fine with as long as it's done at the state level.

You just don't get it, do you? You want to give government the power to decide about abortion and gay marriage - and guess what? they have given it to you in spades and crammed it down your throat.

“Abortion is MURDER, it’s not society’s role to end murder, it’s GOVERNMENT’S.”
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

The governments job is to pass and enforce laws. The only way to end abortion in America is to change hearts and minds of American citizens. I believe even Jesus said something about “men’s hearts have hardened”. Our government is by the people for the people, only they (the government) sometimes forgets this.
