I am conservative by nature according to the two commandments of Jesus which lead to responsibility before rights. But I fail to see that in any governmentYou are speaking of the Conservative Party, not Conservatism.
It's not about race, no need for the race card.White Evangelicals?
Excuse my late arrival to the thread. Could you link me to your list of right wing Conservative attributes so I can examine the content?It's not about race, no need for the race card.
We had a Baptist preacher who became the leader of the CCF a social democratic party often called a 'Red' by the right and left in Canada. He ended up being considered the greatest Canadian ever for the work he did for all with his social justice platform. So he kind of doesn't seem to fit the picture you paint.If those things bother you, just wait until you see Socialism in power. By definition it is against any kind of religion, and especially the ability of Christian churches to engage in charity projects or to speak out for reforms in society.
Socialism and Communism are two sides of the same coin.Nah that's flawed. It would be like saying capitalism leads to fascism, or libertarianism leads to statism which leads to dictatorship and ultimately no freedom... You can argue the same thing on either side. No system is perfect. But what socialism is supposed to be, and the principles of it, are indeed moral and help people. Implementation is a different story. But capitalist systems are perfect either.
Which should show that we are to repent of the world of man and it politics etc all based on animal nature, and focus on the Kingdom?“Should I not have compassion on Nineveh, the great city in which there are more than 120,000 persons who do not know the difference between their right and left hand, as well as many animals?”
The anti-abortion and anti-queer issues are only the sugar that's supposed to make the bitter policies of the right palatable for the religious. They vote against their own interest because they have been convinced that is better than supporting morals they don't agree with.I never understood this because what the right stands for is not even biblical. Two of the things that are absolutely biblical and correct from the right/conservatism are : 1. Anti-LGBT and 2. Pro-Life. And I agree with this, along with general traditional family values and biblical morality. But everything else in the right wing you can argue is completely against Christianity and what Jesus taught. Everything in the right seems to be based on political identity and culture, not Jesus Christ. So I don't understand why right wing politics caters to Christian evangelicals so much.
There is one key difference.No different than live trapping animals
Ecc 10:2
A wise man's heart directs him toward the right, but the foolish man's heart directs him toward the left...
What this proves is that society as whole is brainwashed and utterly deceived. They don't need "republican or democrat" garbage philosophy, they need the word of God.
Well the same bait yes attracts more to the trap as the decades roll by. Never gets stale either.But the religious right will never get what it wants. It will never get abortion outlawed or queer rights cancelled or whatever else they wish for, because unlike the animal in the trap, it will have to be trapped more than once.
Canada is more "socialist" than the U.S., and I feel a lot more free here than I would if I lived in the U.S. It feels nice if something happens to me and if I need to go to the hospital, under all the student loans I have, I will not have to worry about hospital bills like you do in the U.S. Plus you have the freedom from danger and you feel safer and you don't have to worry about a mass shooting. Many countries have more freedom than the U.S.
There's one born every minute. As soon as the old bait wears out, three new ones are ready to take its place.Well the same bait yes attracts more to the trap as the decades roll by. Never gets stale either.
Socialism leads to Dictatorship which leads to communism and ultimately
NO FREEDOM.
Our system along with Australia and the UK works well I think. Scandinavia is even better.Go Commonwealth
