That’s ridiculous. Do you think “conservatism” has a chance without them, except in your head?

I don’t believe “conservatism” has a chance without the folks who are tired of the “bible thumpers”, except in your head.

There is a huge distinction in my mind between a “Bible Thumper” and a true evangelical Christian, although many Bible Thumpers are a sub-set of E.C.s

There is a pharaseeitcal nature to Bible Thumpers.

as a matter of fact, if you are able to see beyond your box, neither all evangelicals are conservatives nor all conservatives, evangelical.
