The Libertarian to Orthodox Pipeline
What is it about Orthodox Christianity that attracts some libertarians?
The Mystic Sisters considered themselves libertarians in the past. Now we are Orthodox Christians. It’s a story many others share, including Buck Johnson of the Counterflow podcast and Matt Erickson of the Kingpilled podcast.
Julie and Matt joined Buck on Counterflow to discuss this phenomenon. What is it about Orthodoxy that attracts some libertarians? Does a libertarian political philosophy prime one to accept Orthodox Christianity? How do libertarians and Orthodox Christians view borders differently, and why is this so crucial to a coherent worldview? Why don’t libertarians have an answer for rampant moral degeneracy, but in fact seem to aid the breakdown of culture? Is it even worth it to adopt a political label for oneself at this point?
Matt and Julie discuss their journey, what they've learned along the way, and how they've changed.
