(LIBERALS ONLY) Is there a fundamental divide between us and conservatives?

[Anto9us]

1. non-heterosexuals are to be demonized
2. abortion equals murder
3. the earth was made in 4004 BC

these seem to be the litmus test of Conservative/Fundamentalist "Christianity"

I flunk

 

[Basil the Great]

The greatest divide in my view is that most Conservatives believe that only Christians will be saved, whereas most Liberals believe that Jews, Muslims and others have a chance of going to Heaven.

Do you think she's right? Are we passed the point of political differences into fundamental differences about it means to be a member of society? If so, how can we change our discussions and debate to reflect that and begin to work together again?

Both sides are required to follow these scriptures. Problem solved:

The fundamental divide is what is the best vehicle for caring about other people. Not whether we should care about them or not. Liberals think the government is really good at caring for people. Conservatives do not.

Hmm. I teter at the left edge of the flat world, but only recent improvements at
the DMV where you get to sit and wait give me any hope for the government.
