I still need to refine my thinking on this. My understanding is that Anarcho-Capitalism and its Ethical implications tie closely with the Christian ethic.

Politics have always been influenced by religion/ethics. Politics being the practice of what ought entities do in the face of scarcity.

Any other Political System doesn't give the freedom of association, citizens cannot opt out unless its an AnCap situation.

I saw that if someone prescribed to just being an AnCap, they'd run into the problem of Moral Relativism. There is no particular reason other than they think respecting an individual's Private Property is preferable and should be secured by decentralized violent entities, whether its the individual or private security firms.

Why should we respect other people's private property and not coerce others? Because every human is a creation of God in his image, given the Freedom to Sin and disobey his wishes.

I say this, probably triggering Christians in the process. Even if an action is immoral, does not mean it should be illegal.

Its essentially defining which social problems require intervention through violence as opposed to cultural/economic change. People have the right to defend themselves but not to steal the things of other people.
