Have I misrepresented your politics in some way?

For example you think the government should ban gay marriage.  This is
essentially saying that you favor government intrusion into private
lives.  Further, a few days ago, you said you thought it was
government's role to set moral examples for our children.

I'm simply contrasting that with me, a civil libertarian: I think the
gov't's role is to protect, defend, and preserve my liberties.  If 2
adults want to get married, that's no business of government.  If an
adult wants to use drugs, that's no business of government.  If 2
adults want to engage in prostitution, that's no business of
government.

Government exists to protect those liberties, not to teach some
arbitrary moral lesson.
