That's enough to interest me but obviously not nearly enough to convince.
Fair enough, I'd like to believe that my libertarian sympathies are based on a lot more than that as well.
I'm sure you've read a lot of Robin Hanson, do you feel he focuses a lot on a deontological justification for libertarian ideas? I also recommend http://www.marginalrevolution.com for learning to see the world through the eyes of thoughtful libertarian economists. Both of these sources are more libertarian than I am, but I find reading them very worthwhile and often convincing. In important respects, even Paul Krugman is more libertarian than most Americans.
I think we'd probably do well to discuss individual policies, which can be done more precisely than overarching political philosophies.
This is probably a good point, as for all the sound and fury of this thread I would be slightly surprised if there were more than a handful of actual, significant policy disagreements between participants.
