This takes some nuance. I don't "follow" Ron Paul. I agree with most of his political views, and I'd vote for him, but I don't "follow" him.
I thought referring to you and other Paulbots as "followers" was a bit nicer than calling you what you really are:
Ron Paul's lapdogs.
McDurmon (who, as a theonomist, is far more conservative than I am) discusses this issue here:...
As I've mentioned before, McD's father in law is Gary North. North worked for Ron Paul way back when he was honest enough to run for President on the political party ticket that reflected his loony views: The Libertarian Party. As far as McD's supposed Christian values go: Amongst other things he's part of the Doper Revolution that wants to legalize pot, a recreational drug that has and will continue to ruin millions and millions of lives.
And now for a disclaimer:
Now, are Ron Paul's views on homosexuality and its morality wrong? Of course they are. Do I wish he was more Biblically consistent there?
God is very clear when it comes to His design for human sexuality. Anyone that thinks that God made Adam and Eve
and Adam and Steve has more than one screw loose upstairs.

I don't see this the same way that you do. I do not see how it is consistent with Christian compassion to lock people up for their choice to use destructive substances.
Libertarian 'compassion' of course means allowing people to destroy their lives, their family's lives and the society that they live in as well.
Hopefully as you grow older you'll get out into the real world (sorry Jr., but growing up in a church environment didn't allow you to see the real world) you'll see the destruction that your doctrine promotes.
I'll also note that the American founding fathers never saw fit to restrict drugs.
Because they lived in a time when God's Word was honored. People adhered to the laws of Holy Scripture and didn't need massive laws to oversee them.

I could go on, but why waste valuable internet ink on someone who is so terribly indoctrinated into this cult called L/libertarianism that you won't listen to reason.
BTW Jr.: What was it in your life that lead you to believe in amongst other things, sexual anarchy?
I don't believe in "sexual anarchy." I never have.
I believe in minimal government that protects our rights, protects us from violence against person or property, and otherwise leaves us free to live our lives as we see fit. I see it as the job of Christians to persuade people to live MORAL lives. But, that's too hard for you. Using the sword is just so much easier, isn't it?
So what happened in your life that lead you to HATE your fellow man like you do Jr.?
