All this time since on a conservative site I have been attacked by liberals - atheists !

Not that there's any excuse for rudeness, but not all conservatives are Christians, and not all atheists are liberals.

There are many conservatives who ARE Christians, but there are also conservatives who are Jewish, Muslim, and non-believers. Some of these are social conservatives; some are more libertarian socially but are conservative because they believe in a limited role of government and lower taxes.

One problem with some of the people on this site (and I'm not necessarily saying that you're one of them) is they think people must believe exactly as they do, or the others are "not worthy" or not "true conservatives".

One hallmark of conservatives is that we do think for ourselves; much as some liberals hate it, most of us are not "mind-numbed robots".

Is it not safe to say, though, that "No atheists are creationists"? LOL

FreeRepublic for some here hasn't risen above a sophmoric fraternity endless weekend loop ... reminds me of the hippies at columbia university or attica --- we shall overcome --- never grow up !

Demand infantile obsessions - indulgences ... claiming anti repression establishment - parental dysfunctionalism injuries --- reparations !

Premature alzhimers from chemical abuse !

Isn't this all a liberal thing !

Nope, conservatives believe in moral and eternal truth. Atheists cannot be conservatives. They can be Republicans, but they cannot be conservatives because they deny that there is any moral imperative.
