It's very easy to be one. You see, you can't be brainwashed from reality.

How can you believe that dinosaurs and humans existed at the same time?
|
Do you believe that they lived at another time? If so, why? Who told you so, and why do they believe so?
There are dragon legends that go back thousands of years. The word dinosaur was not coined until the 1800s. Cave drawings, legends, and stories talk of "dragons". Dinosaur bones have been found that have contained blood vessels (soft tissue). If something is billions of years old, there is no way that such material would be found.
The idea that the Earth is billions of years old is an evolutionary belief, often based on a reason of doing nothing more than trying to disprove God. You see, evolution only makes sense with a lot of people, despite a lack of evidence, if someone claims that it took place over millions and billions of years. Others ignorantly believe that the Earth is billions of years old because they in a flawed manner believe that layers of sediment are laid down uniformly (at a consistent, steady rate). They then count the layers and claim that whatever fossils are found in it must be of whatever age the layers were found in. However, true observational science shows that sedimentary layers can be deposited fairly quickly during power weather events.
The Genesis flood was powerful enough to account for all the sedimentary layers being laid down consisting of vast numbers of dinosaur fossils. It was also powerful enough to have resulted in an ice age that killed off the rest of the dinosaurs (after animals will have disembarked from the ark and repopulated).
Dinosaurs are the dragons of old. They lived during a time when people also lived.

How can you be against a woman having the right to her own body?

It's an unborn child's life. What do you not get? Do you think that babies should be murdered?

How can you be against a woman having the right to her own body in the case of rape or incest?

Having an abortion is much more traumatic than giving birth to a baby conceived during an act of rape or incest. By the way, the baby is still a baby. It still has a right to life, don't you think? Do you believe that it is okay to kill a human being only because of the events surrounding it coming into this world? I don't.
There's adoption. Many couples desire children. Nine months isn't a long time to wait to carry a child.

How can you be against two people who love each other getting married like the rest of us?
|
I take it that you're referring to homosexuals? Homosexual marriage is an abomination, as are the acts themselves, as noted by God. Marriage is an ordained institution by God between a man and a woman. Hence, homosexuals can't get married.
Why do you really want homosexuals to have marriage status? Is not something that is supposed to be kept sacred worthy of being kept sacred?

How can you say you want government out of our lives, but believe these things?
|
The first question about the dinosaurs has nothing to do with the government. The rest have to do commands by God. What's not to get?
By the way, never in the past have homosexuals been allowed to "marry". Abortion was illegal before 1973, and it should still be illegal. It's nothing more than sanctioned murder.

If this country had any brains (which it doesn't) it would be libertarian.

Libertarianism wouldn't work at the national level. There has to be a set of moral values, otherwise the country ultimately suffers decay. Admittedly, not as fast as what occurs under so-called "progressive"/leftist policies, but it decays regardless.
