- Christian_libertarianism abstract "Christian libertarianism describes the synthesis of Christian beliefs concerning free will, human nature, and dignity with libertarian political philosophy. It is also an ideology to the extent that its supporters promote their cause to others and join together as a movement. In contrast to the Christian left and the Christian right respectively, they believe charity and enforcement of personal-level morality should be the purview of the (voluntary) church and not the state. These responsibilities must not be abrogated, though any non-governmental organization (NGO) not publicly financed is free to pursue them as well.As with secular libertarianism, socialism, fascism, and crony capitalism are strongly opposed, as is theocracy. The latter does not include merely being influenced by Christian concepts; whereas in a theocracy, government derives its powers from a divine or religious authority directly exercising governmental control. The use of force by the state is never justified to achieve purely political, social, or religious goals, but is reserved solely to uphold natural rights.Individual freedom of religion without state interference is absolutely supported regardless of one's beliefs. Nevertheless, a majority religion in a given locale could display its faith on government-owned property if it had the popular votes to do so. Public sector discrimination is strictly forbidden, while in the private sector, it is permitted, though discouraged (excepting bona fide associated costs, such as insurance rates).Christian libertarians believe these principles are supported in the Bible by Christ's teaching (see below), and His criticism of the laws (Halakha) as observed by the Pharisees. For example, in Jesus' day, it was prohibited to heal someone on the Sabbath, as this was considered doing actual work on the mandated day of rest and worship. He opposed the Pharisees due to their self-righteous, man-made regulations added to God's law, which they obeyed outwardly, but with the wrong inward motivation. In addition, most Christians believe the ceremonial and civic laws found in the Old Testament have been superseded by the New Covenant. (The moral laws such as the Ten Commandments remain in place.) For these reasons, Christian libertarians may consider Jesus of Nazareth as the greatest libertarian in history.".
