By the way, I'll go so far as to assert that God, in addition to being a monarchist, also has strongly libertarian leanings. How else can you describe an all-powerful king who goes so far as to let his creation choose whether to obey him or not? Liberty is all about the individual freedom to choose, and those who try to deny it are not on the side of the angels no matter what they might think.

No, I'm not "pro-choice" in the sense of pro-abortion terminology – quite the opposite. This stays well within the framework of Libertarian logic because there are, quite obviously, at least two parties involved, possibly even three. The fact that one is incapable of consent only makes the Libertarian anti-abortion argument that much more clear.

YES!! I have considered myself a voice in the Libertarian wilderness for years on this issue. Finally, someone makes the case. Christian spirituality is completely congruous with the Libertarian positions of absolute freedom outside of violating another's rights. Thanks for the post, John!
