So IOW's if those who disagree with you would just not practice their rights... you'd be OK with them? If social liberals kept out of social items I would have alot less difficulty with them... how's that?
I more often agree with social conservatives than social liberals. I frankly think social liberalism can and will lead to societal decay and collapse. HOWEVER, I am opposed to anyone on either side who would attempt to use the force of gov't to impose their views on the rest of society. I oppose those who are trying to bully Christians into accepting homosexuality... but I do not approve when guys like Dobson or Robertson propose using gov't power to suppress free speech on tv or other media.
There is ALWAYS a third way that we can choose to preserve everyone's rights, ensure gov't does not take sides, and effectively assure that no one's ox must be gored. Choose freedom and protect it. You cannot protect your rights and freedoms by empowering gov't to violate someone else's.
I dont think things like gay marriage should be banned. To me that is Christian conservative social principles being placed over everyone. Nor do I subscribe to the idea that Christians are bullyed.
Conservatives say they want less government yet try to pass legislation to meet their social standards. In my eyes being socially liberal means allowing everyone more free will.
