I don’t understand the fear of leaving marriage to the domain of faith/religion.

That means that anything goes, since all religions are go, including the new ones that would crop up, that is worst than the political challenge that we face now.

More importantly, you know very well that America is not going to change the laws to turn marriage into what you want, so why did libertarians create this artificial diversion in the first place?

Perhaps you have noticed what I have noticed, freerepublic never gets to discuss the conservative politics of how to fight gay marriage, instead all the threads for many months, get diverted into a useless and bizarre religious discussion started by????? libertarians.

That's because the libertarians realize that they can't just come out in favor of their liberal agenda, so they try to sidetrack the issue with innumerable red herrings.

Well, what I’d like to see is the traditional form of marriage we once enjoyed here in the United States.

I understand the point that without govt involvement in marriage, marriage is doomed to the arbitrary desire of depravity. And given the likelihood of that speculation, we know for a fact, right now, that govt today is effectively mandating through enforcement the depraved form of marriage that is feared to exist in the hypothetical libertarian space.

The govt is simply armed with too many tools — tools that are being used to destroy conservatism. I want those tools taken away.
