Rand Paul "Libertarianism" is smoke and mirrors...

[Green_Lantern]

If we follow his views the natural conclusion would be a theocracy.

Proof of this is a recent interview when he said:

http://trueslant.com/charlesjohnson/2010/05/24/rand-paul-we-wouldnt-need-laws-if-everyone-were-christian/">I’m a Christian. We go to the Presbyterian Church. My wife’s a Deacon there and we’ve gone there ever since we came to town. I see that Christianity and values is the basis of our society… . 98% of us won’t murder people, won’t steal, won’t break the law and it helps a society to have that religious underpinning. You still need to have the laws but I think it helps to have a people who believe in law and order and who have a moral compass or a moral basis for their day to day life.

He wants a free society as long as we live exactly the way his religion says.

1. Like I heard on the Thom Hartmann show last week ...

Libertarians make sense for about 10 seconds, then it all unravels.
:crazy:

2. Complete bullshit

religious people are no more moral than non christian people.

3. Thank you.

More ammo for arguing against libertarianism is always welcome.

4. Wasn't Christ socialist?

After all he fed the hungry with free fish and bread.

5. "Libertarianism" is great in theory, just not applicable to the real world.
