Conservative christians have morphed into big government Neo Cons with a dictate from God ( in their minds) to spread the word of the lord and build democracies( "nation building" ) by force.
Has not worked out too well. the past 6 decades, in fact it has been a disaster for young men killed and maimed in the US military, trillions of dollars of deficit in the US and the countries forcibly invaded
Religion does not equal "conservativism".
Never did.
Religion might not equal “conservatism” but Christianity most assuredly does. Historically speaking the “Christian Right” is the most uniformly and predictable conservative base.
You guys really need to get out and talk to people other than your Wednesday night Squash league members.
I don’t think it’s “us” that are insulated from the real world. You’re pretty cosmopolitan up there on the hi line huh? I don’t know what your issue is with the FACT that Christian and Conservative are historically synonymous but just because you feel left out or lonely doesn’t change the historical facts. 😉
