I support paul i even voted for him in my state but im wondering what areas people here disagree with him on. For me personally:
1. Doesn't believe in Global warming.
2. Doesn't accept evolution despite it being as factual.

You might want to research your assumptions.
Ron Paul's views are nuanced. He isn't a bumper sticker.
He is religious but says his views don't preclude evolution, however, he resents questions about religious beliefs being raised as if they were a religious test for office. He also believes the earth does what it does in temperature. His belief in the limits on the federal government govern his views of law, so it doesn't matter whether he thinks humans are involved or not.

"Integrity means having to say things that people don't want to hear & especially to say things that the regime doesn't want to hear.” -Ron Paul

Global warming differs from global climate change.
You knew that right?

I disagree on certain envrionmental issues.
"Governor, if I had foreseen the use those people
designed to make of their victory,
there would have been no surrender at
Appomattox Courthouse; no sir, not by me.
Had I foreseen these results of subjugation,
I would have preferred to die at Appomattox
with my brave men, my sword in my right hand." - Robert E. Lee to Governor Fletcher S. Stockdale (D-Texas), 1870
There are multiple issues where I disagree with Ron Paul on.
I am opposed to cutting taxes during a deficit
I do not want to eliminate public schooling.
Although I do not want the US to to withdraw from NATO or the UN.
I do not share his dogma that "government is always less efficient than private enterprise".
and on that note, I am not completely opposed to public healthcare.

If you wanted some sort of Ideological purity, you'll get none of that from me.
Ron never even advocated ending public schooling when he ran on the Libertarian ticket in 1988. His stance has always been eliminating the mandate to attend public schools.
How else can you create and close borders than with a government? You can't beat back a government when you empower it.
"Open borders" is NOT synonymous with the UN/progressive agenda, anymore than being anti-war or pro-drugs is synonymous with the progressive agenda, or anti-tax exclusive to the conservative agenda.
