Those people don't see their gods as authoritarian in a "micro-manage" sort of way. Just a "here's a framework" way. Maybe?

I'm talking abt the ones with authoritarian gods. Specifically, gods who punish those with different views with eternal Hell.

These seem opposed to authoritarianism politically among humans but not psychologically or philosophically in any consistent way.

That's it, I think. Authoritarianism from humans = bad, from God = fine.

Exactly. This undermines my idea that libertarianism is primarily a character trait. A psychological thing.pic.twitter.com/XuafGBIYGf

I think it is a psychological trait. It just applies to social interactions, not "divine" ones. They are of a different nature.

Well, God doesn't intervene actively for them. He gives you the rules and then scores you at the end.

Libertarians value picking the rules they want to follow, and following them without being told what to do by other people.

I know. This is why belief in a god who tells you what rules to follow seems inconsistent if their tendency to value this is innate.
