Can you even begin to understand the difference between me and a liberal?
I think any taxation not specifically for national defense or punishment of crime to be theft: liberals want massive tax rates for any program they can imagine.
I want abortion to be illegal and, under an ideal situation where guilt is certain or nearly so, punished by death. Liberals want abortion to be illegal.
I support the right of any adult to put ANY substance into their body that they choose. Liberals want to ban all sorts of substances because they are unhealthy.
I am so radically second amendment that I make second amendment people cringe. Liberals want to ban or greatly restrict gun ownership/
I support repealing the laws that require a government license for marriage. Liberals want to "legalize" gay marriage and therefore expand government regulation of the same.
I oppose all regulation of the economy, from the FDA to government ownership of roads or schools, to anti-price gouging laws to basically anything else you can think of. Liberals... well, we all know what they believe and its the opposite of what I believe on the economy. Heck, NickM has already proven to be more liberal than me on the economy, as has aCW. Not sure where you stand.
I support abolishing public schools, the liberals want to teach their ideology (evolution, moral relativism, liberalism) in the public schools.
I could go on with this, but I'll start there.
He called Ron Paul pro-choice. As did the American Right to Life. Both are wrong.

Well, if you really want to be so obtuse as to use the same word for two ideologies that are very close to being opposites, you can go ahead and do that, but what would be the point?
If you really think my ideology and that of people like Ron Paul or Judge Andrew Napolitano is the same one that people like Barack Obama, Mitt Romney, or Hillary Clinton support, feel free to explain that.

Just because you're not as left as some of them doesn't mean you're not liberal.
And Ron Paul believes the states should have a choice in the matter.

How are you defining "Left" and "Right."
I'm aware this seems like a stupid question, seeing as most people just assume that the Republican Party is "Right" and the Democrats are "Left" but I don't see any kind of philosophical basis for this.
I'd say I'm fiscally "conservative" but I make the conservatives look bad on that. I'll have to look for the one occasion where aCW actually responded to something I said about economics. I'm apparently too laissez faire for him
As for social issues, I'm all over the place. I'm pro-life, and extremely so (At least at the state level) and I'm in favor of legalizing essentially every firearm. So "conservative." But I'm also against regulating drugs or consensual sexual behaviors. So I'd be very far to the "left" there. But why? Isn't supporting freedom (And life, for that matter) ideologically consistent. What is the ideological consistency, for example, with conservatives criticizing liberals for soda size regulations and high taxes on cigarettes because people have a right to make dumb choices, yet opposing legalization of drugs? I mean, that might be a different grade on the same scale, but they aren't ideological opposites, at all.
Both the "left" and the "right" are so full of ideological contradictions, so its a joke. Since you're a theonomist you could probably just say "My ideology is I enforce every Biblical law" and that's consistent I guess, but its not really "Right", anymore than it is "Left": your position just doesn't really appear on the stupid spectrum anymore than mine does.
On the two dimensional scale I reluctantly classify as "More right than left" although that's really arbitrary.
He supports the constitution. Admittedly, he did make at least one mistake in this regard, when he voted for the PBA ban, and that was an error. But the principle, that he supports the state's right to pass whatever laws they see fit to control murder, is supported by the 10th amendment.

I'm sorry, I'll try to pay closer attention to your Christian mentoring in the future.
On that note: I specialize in cultural issues (except for cigarette and blasphemy legislation, I'm not up on those); feel free to correct me in the 2nd part of this year old thread that deals with the current hot cultural issue.

As I just mentioned, I'm not up on current tobacco and blasphemy legislation, so what's the point in answering any further loonatarian questions?
(Some 17 year olds have the attention span of a gnat).
It was a typo Jr. from a post a page ago, don't get too excited.

Irrelevant. The point is not about cigarettes and/or blasphemy per se. It's about your continued blatant hypocrisy.
As a consolation, your deflection skill is top notch.

I haven't been following your thread, by virtue of being on 30 day hiatus from said thread.
As Ron Paul is in favor of legalization of prostitution, as is any libertarian, its not surprising that they'd support him. Much like how if you had a society in which Christianity was illegal, people like you and I would probably vote for someone who hates Christianity yet wants to legalize it: Ron Paul does not support prostitution but seeing as he's the one who wants to legalize it, its only logical that people who want to do that would vote for him.
You mean you haven't posted in my thread in the past couple of weeks. I just saw you peeking in not but a couple of minutes ago.
Any chance that you can up that personal hiatus from said thread to...let's say a year?
Yet some Libertarians have the audacity to call themselves "Christian", knowing that God strictly forbids out of wedlock sex.
Hold on, I'm calling Ron Paul to ship me some LSD so that I can follow your attempt at so called "logic".

Try to remember that quote the next time you bring them up in other threads that have absolutely nothing to do with blasphemy laws or tobacco products.

I never said I wouldn't view the thread. I checked it because you pointed out something in particular that you posted there. I did not, however, respond.
As for a year, most likely not. Someone needs to refute your idiotic arguments eventually.
I'm a Christian, as is Ron Paul. Stop being obtuse, or otherwise show me where "Criminalizing sexual sins" is listed as a prerequesite for Salvation in the Bible.
If you want to do activity X, you're going to support the candidate who opposes but will not ban activity X over the candidate who opposes AND wants to ban activity X.
Its not that complicated for someone with an IQ of at least double digits.
You don't understand why we're bringing up blasphemy.
Your argument is if you don't want to ban an activity, you automatically support that activity. And that a Christian should want to ban any activity which God disproves. But somehow, this rule doesn't apply to blasphemy. You have yet to explain why.
Do you support blasphemy, aCW?
Do you support criminalizing it?
Two easy questions. Not that hard, even for you.

No it doesn't.
A lot of so called Libertarians are liberal. But I venture to say most are not. Just as the republican party, some support abortion while others don't.

Neither do I, at least not just because its the LP platform. Obviously there are parts with which I agree, but not all of it. Certainly not the abortion segment.
First draw a circle...
They're both left.
What you'd call yourself is irrelevant.I'd say I'm fiscally "conservative" but I make the conservatives look bad on that. I'll have to look for the one occasion where aCW actually responded to something I said about economics. I'm apparently too laissez faire for him
You said it all in the first sentence; you're all over the place. That makes you leftist.
Who said anything about the commonly accepted political spectrum?
And therefore more left than true right.
And such an amendment is a problem. If the states are given the right to legislate regarding the murder of unborn children [or any other immoral, unethical act] then that is wrong.
I'll believe it when I see it.
I'm not getting into old threads.
But do me a favor, start a thread on abortion. As I recall you used to do that. And while you're at it present the gospel as well as condemn the murder of unborn children. Do the same when condemning sodomy. that is all I ask.
Because abortion is the only issue.
Do you vote Doc? If so, which political party? If you do vote, I would hope that you'd at least check out the national platform of the particular political party that you're voting for as there are huge ideological differences between the Democrats, Republicans and Dopertarian party's.
