Originally posted by MRRiley Actually I think it is more that religious zealots have take over American conservatism. I am personally conservative in some areas and liberal in others. I am not the least bit religious however. Been there, done that, got the t-shirt and then burned it!

I think almost every thinking person is that way. Some days I am more liberal than others even. Non zealots even have the ability of seeing the good the other side (if there are sides) is suggesting even if they do not agree with it or that it is the best way forward. To many today it is a battle to totally defeat or insult the other side without even knowing what the ideas or policies on ether side are.
Apparently my great grand parents may have been religious but that is about as close to it as I have got and they died decades before I was born
