If social conservatives viewed the state the same way fiscal conservatives do, then they would be satisfied converting believers in their churches and competing for the morality of man in the free marketplace of ideas. Instead they more closely resemble their leftist brethren who prefer to use the power of the state to compel the rest of us to behave in the manner they deem appropriate.

Any logical or factual based discussion is generally pointless as both the leftist and the social conservative will near immediately resort to name calling or painting with a broad brush. Anyone who disagrees with a leftist is a racist and anyone who disagrees with a social conservative is a moral degenerate.

BS. Nonsense. Historically inaccurate. Porn, obscenity, abortion and sodomy were all illegal for the first 175 years of our country - STATE laws. Until leftist dominated SCOTUS decisions FORCED every state to all legalize them; or rather by force prevented all the states from making their own laws against those immoral practices.

You liberaltarians ignore history and reality and are part of the problem.

Sounds like you’re the one painting people with a broad brush. You social liberals are funny.
