I myself am a Christian, a youth minister at that. I am also a libertarian. Now sadly most people I come in contact with in the Church do not know what libertarianism is... I would like to keep to this short, so I won't go into definition, but the typical conversation goes like this.
Them: "So you believe that Drugs should be legal?"
Me: "Yes I do."
Them: "But how can you be a Christian and think that?"
Me: "Because not everyone in America is a Christian. So who am I to govern them by my own beliefs?"
Them: "Because God doesn't want people to do drugs, and by making it legal, you'd be going against God."
Me: "I myself will not do drugs, so I don't see how I personally will be disobedient. And those who do not hold my beliefs should not held to the standards of that belief."
Them: "But you have to vote your conscience!"

I do not understand this reasoning. By making my beliefs the laws everyone has to follow, I am no better then those who are trying to push prayer out of school. Or out of the public at all for that matter! I do feel as a Christian a sense of oppression. I have been told at some jobs my cross necklace cannot be seen when I wear it. Or that my religious fasts and traditions cannot be flamboyant (i.e. Ash Wednesday). I have never forced my religious beliefs on anyone, nor have I asked anyone to turn their, "Satan is boss" T-shirts inside out when in the same store as me. I've never been offended by Jews wearing the Star of David in school, or by people not saying, "Under God" in pledge.

So it hurts me to know that some Christians are trying to implement that same type of oppression on others. Banning gay marriage, abortion, drug prohibition, and prostitution to name a few. Are they not in practice with my spiritual beliefs? Yes. Am I forced to do any of it by their legalling? No.

We should all be free to life as we choose. Not as by what "they" presume best.

You'd make a good representative, I think. To cast your vote based on what your people believe, and not necissarially ( I think I butchered that word ) yourself.

No one tells me my religous neclaces can't be worn at work. Though, they're just wolf and hawk totems. Maybe they're accepted because they're animals? I don't know. Maybe I should wear a pent, or a faestar, and see what their reaction is.
