Bill Cope: Libertarians Are Loony

The trouble with the cult of libertarianism is that we are all Libertarians to one extent or another, depending on the issue before us. For instance, if smoking dope or engaging in homosexual acts is your only passion in life (the only matter you feel strongly enough about to rise from the Barcalounger and vote ove) libertarian is the church for you. In theory, they are very sympathetic to dope smokers and gays. In practice, we don’t find them pushing nearly as hard for cultural liberties as they do for total economic licentiousness. But at least they talk a good live-and-let-live theology, even if they aren’t in any apparent rush to enact it/ Bill Cope , Boise Weekly. More here .
