Olog-hai: “No conservative ought to find it daring to say that.”

I agree, but all conservatives are not Christian. I’m not ashamed to speak the truth, but some conservatives close their minds whenever the Bible or sin are mentioned. I’ve seen it firsthand. I discuss how government is out of control, and they nod vigorously in agreement. Then I mention how a lot of it is due to rampant immorality, and they’ll cross their arms, give me a hostile look, and tell me they don’t discuss religion. Nevertheless, the truth is...

God hates divorce!

I didn’t mention Christianity in particular. That said, I don’t see how anyone can really call oneself conservative and close one’s mind to the Bible, especially when we have a Constitution based largely on the Ten Commandments. The Founding Fathers were adamant that private morality would be the main pillar on which the country stood or fell, and they would not regard anyone that eschewed such morality as a conservative in the US sense.

I noticed that you paraphrased Malachi 2:16, which is not solely Christian of course.
