Conservatives vs Liberals

"since Republicans call us socialists no matter what we do, we might as well give them the real thing!" - AOC

That doesn't even make sense.

AOC's policies are socialist in nature. "no matter what we do".... that implies she has done something anti-socialist, that we called socialist.

Feel free to explain to me which policy she supports that is free-market capitalist? I'd love to know which policy that is.
 
No one in this thread denied G-d. You demonstrate yet another prevalent trait among conservatives ... delusions.

Really? Then tell us about God.
To show what a heathen and non-believer they are, this person is LITERALLY unable to post the letters g, o, d, GOD, in that order! What a crazy individual. I've never seen anything like this before!
You're again blaming me for your ignorance?? Even a semi-literate person could have Googled the reason for that spelling. Goes to show even semi-literate folks are still light years ahead of you.

I answer to G-d, not you.

Savvy?

So ... including the 'o' is somehow sacrilegious? And using the '-' FOOLS God into thinking you weren't actually typing his name?
You too are welcome to educate yourself. Is the conservative capable? It seems not.

I was baptized a Catholic. Did the First Communion. Did Confirmation. Did the confessionals. Own a Rosary. Attended Catholic grammar school. Attended Catholic high school. Got the ashes in my eyes several times. Taught by Sister Scary Tarantula. Did catechism. Went through the whole program. I am a recovering Catholic now. I know all about the 'o' vs '-' crap. I seriously doubt that I have condemned my soul to eternity in Hell for typing "God" instead of "G-d"

Who's saying you're condemned for how you spell G-d?

But you are wrong. I HAVE seen God. Just not in the only form you accept as capable of being seen.

You are on vacation and you return to a clean house with everything organized. you have SEEN your mother, even though she is not there when you arrive. By her works, you SEE your mother.

No, you have not seen God, you have seen evidence that you attribute to God, that is not the same thing as seeing God.

And the only reason that you attribute that evidence to God is because you believe in God...or in other words you sees something only when you believe.
 
What the conservative is incapable of understanding is that not everyone thinks like it. While it believes the unborn is a soul from conception, that doesn't actually make it so. Yet the conservative still believes its own beliefs should be imposed on everyone.

It is no coincidence that yours is the same side that once denied the full humanity of black people, and on the basis, supported slavery and other abuses toward them.

you are aware that Christianity once denied the full humanity of black people, and on the basis, supported slavery and other abuses toward them...right?

Acts 8:26-39

But an angel of the Lord spake unto Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward the south unto the way that goeth down from Jerusalem unto Gaza: the same is desert. 27 And he arose and went: and behold, a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch of great authority under Candace, queen of the Ethiopians, who was over all her treasure, who had come to Jerusalem to worship; 28 and he was returning and sitting in his chariot, and was reading the prophet Isaiah. 29 And the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot. 30 And Philip ran to him, and heard him reading Isaiah the prophet, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest? 31 And he said, How can I, except some one shall guide me? And he besought Philip to come up and sit with him. 32 Now the passage of the scripture which he was reading was this,


He was led as a sheep to the slaughter;
And as a lamb before his shearer is dumb,
So he openeth not his mouth:
33 In his humiliation his judgment was taken away:
His generation who shall declare?
For his life is taken from the earth.

34 And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some other? 35 And Philip opened his mouth, and beginning from this scripture, preached unto him Jesus. 36 And as they went on the way, they came unto a certain water; and the eunuch saith, Behold, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?" 38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they both went down into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him. 39 And when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip; and the eunuch saw him no more, for he went on his way rejoicing.
So let's review....

Judaism which basically taught that there were only the chosen, and everyone else was excluded, was the historical belief of all the people in Acts.

However, Christianity, as this passage taught, said that all people, and in this case an Ethiopia, was specifically called to be part of Christianity. G-d himself sent Philip to meet this Ethiopian, and bring him to faith, and baptize him in the name of Jesus Christ the Lord.

So you can claim that Christianity was against people of color or whatever, but the fact is the founding book of Christianity teaches differently than you claim.

Acts 10:34
And Peter opened his mouth, and said,

Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:​

End of the story. Thank you sir, for stopping by.

As we have seen down through history, Christians have not done a good job of following the Bible.

It has already been explained to you why some people leave the o out of God, and it is the opposite of being a heathen or a non-believer...why do you persist in your ignorance?

It is not about fooling God, it is about showing awe and respect.

Did the Catholics teach you that using the "o" would have condemned your soul to eternity in Hell? I do not believe that is what they teach.

A liberal sees something only when he believes it.
Bullshit.

A conservative makes things up and believes what they have made up no matter how many times they get shown it's wrong. Liberals don't do that.

I really don't think the creator is too worried about the spelling of his name by one group of those he created.

“Conservatives vs Liberals”

Conservatives are, for the most part, reactionary authoritarian ideologues fearful of, and hostile to, diversity, inclusion, and beneficial change; they seek to compel conformity and punish dissent.

Liberals are not reactionary authoritarian ideologues, they are neither fearful of, nor hostile to, diversity, inclusion, and beneficial change; they do not seek to compel conformity or punish dissent.



Cancel culture is on line one, and would like a word with you.
 
I was a Democrat when I was younger...then I began to follow common sense more and more as I got older. Republican now.

Never been a party man. I was fortunate to be trained in classical liberalism by my patents, the schools I attended and the times in which I grew up. I have never been Democrat, though I did support many of them for various reasons decades ago.

Never again.

A classical liberal is a conservative who was dragged kicking and screaming into the 20th Century, and isn't ready to leave it yet.

Conservatives should acknowledge the Constitution was a liberal document for the day.

Classical liberalism is a political ideology and a branch of liberalism which advocates civil liberties under the rule of law with an emphasis on economic freedom, which places primary emphasis on securing the freedom of the individual by limiting the power of the government. It was favored by the Founding Fathers and was the primary influence on the founding of this country.

Modern liberalism has become the religion of the collective, steeped in Marxism and its variants, which places its emphasis on the success of various group identities over the rights of individuals and granting control of all aspects of human life and the economy into the hands of an all-powerful government.

In other words, totalitarianism. We ain't buying it here.

Conservatism is marked by its devotion to the status quo or the status quo ante. Liberalism is not. What you're trying to label as classical liberalism is an attitude that says, 'I'll change this much, but not more." It's conservative at its heart.
Utterly ignorant. Definitions of conservatism you find online are ignorant.

The object of the conservative is not to preserve any status quo but rather to preserve first principles.

I wrote more than "Bullshit" in that quote. You don't know what a liberal is chump.

And whatever I am, it's damn sure not a right wing nutjob calling myself a conservative like you.
