I am wondering how someone can call themselves libertarian when they endorse government being any more involved than necessary. A true libertarian wants the government to have the least amount of influence over the people possible. Show me a religion that endorses personal freedoms over denominational beliefs, a religion that encourages individual thought over guided group thought, a religion that is open to new ideas, opinions and ways of life, a religion that is inclusion based and does not have expansion as a main priority. Show me that religion and I'll sign up.
human nature...no one fits perfectly into one category....you add up the pros and cons and align yourself accordingly. At times you sacrifice certain personal beleifs for the greater good...
