Openness is definitely a personality trait, it is one of the five axes of personality.

So is someone who thinks it's good for God to punish wrongthink open in a way that would fit with libertarianism?

Well if they do believe that and are open, they would be tolerant of other beliefs, and would be able to change that belief

We're talking abt their own belief that a God who punishes wrongthink is doing the right thing morally.

Obv many libertarians don't believe in this kind of God or don't think abt or justify hell for ppl with different views.

But they defend the rights of ppl to live by different moral codes in real life.

Yes because it's a compromise that leaves them with the freedom they want.

A pragmatic thing to achieve own ends rather than a philosophical & moral commitment to freedom?
