[Vision2020] CBS rebroadcasts 'Without A Trace' teenage orgy

[Art Deco]

Scott,

Perhaps you or perhaps someone who is a full-fledged libertarian can explain.

Full-fledged libertarians allegedly believe in the maximum of personal choice and freedom.  They also believe that the test of the value of a product is whether it succeeds in the marketplace.

Shouldn't a libertarian not only allow but demand that people be allow to choose what they watch on TV free of censorship?  Shouldn't a libertarian not only allow but demand that market forces should determine what is produced and offered on TV?

Of course, I'm old.  But in the days of my 30s, libertarians were the ones who were adamantly opposed to censorship of any kind, opposed to interference in the news and entertainment markets by so-called moralists, and who were strongly in favor of extremely liberal freedom of information laws.

Doesn't it also strike you as odd that Comb-Over Courtney, who claims to be a libertarian, is the attack dog for the Wilson & Family's Cult & Cash Machine whose anti-liberty doctrines include the material appended below.

Quiz:  Name a single word which describes Courtney and his ilk with respect to the issue discussed above.

"The civil magistrate is the minister of God to execute wrath on the wrongdoer (Rom. 13:4). God has not left his civil minister without guidance on how to exercise his office. The Scriptures set forth clear standards of judgment for many offenses. Capital crimes, for example, include premeditated killing (murder), kidnapping, sorcery, bestiality, adultery, homosexuality, and cursing one's parents..."



"In contemporary American jurisprudence, none of these offenses is punishable by death, with the occasional exception of murder. The magistrates have dispensed with God's standards of justice. Some Christians believe this is an improvement. They would be horrified to think that the "harsh" penalties of the law should still be applied. Sometimes this is the result of the mistaken belief that the Old Testament has no further application after the advent of Christ. This is an exegetical problem. Too often, it is the result of a sinful view of the criminal. This sin is called pity."

"If your brother, the son of your mother, your son or your daughter, the wife of your bosom, or your friend who is as your own soul, secretly entices you, saying, "Let us go and serve other gods,". . . you shall not consent to him or listen to him, nor shall your eye pity him, nor shall you spare him or conceal him; but you shall surely kill him..."  [Heresy: Beware, ye not of the cult (including unconverted Jews)!]

"If two men fight together, and the wife of one draws near to rescue her husband from the hand of the one attacking him, and puts out the hand and seizes him by the genitals, then you shall cut off her hand; your eye shall not pity her..."   

 

God commands the judge to evaluate the crime rather than the criminal. If the crime is one for which God requires death, then death must be the punishment. Your eye shall not pity. Neither is the repentance of the accused relevant to the imposition of the sentence. 

"Thus, the Bible teaches that pity is not an option where God has decided the matter. The [civil] magistrate, God's minister, is to faithfully execute justice according to God's standard, not man's...  This means that we must return to an obedience which confines pity within the bounds which God has established for us."
