I also agree that people are perfected by Christ, so we're together on that.
In terms of whether or not people are completely wicked, this is not true in the USA because of our cultural inheratance. But in, say, Afghanistan, this is unfortunately very true.

Even if there are a significant number of libertarians who fit your description, it's neither a description of all libertarians nor inherent to libertarianism. Witness people like OP or myself.

I think we're using the word "good" differently. You're speaking of humanly good, but I (a little unfairly, I suppose) took it in a theological context where what you said is simply wrong. Good in the sense I have in mind has nothing to do with cultural traditions. Give a Godly tradition to a wicked man, and you'll get phariseeism, which is worse than drinking, smoking, and staying out past midnight.
