shares common views with the religious conservatives (and NOT with the Libertarians) concerning moral values.

Not only shares but actively promotes Judaeo Christian values in Government and the public sphere of life in America and the world.

So I guess I am NEOCON.

...'Promoting' is one thing...But using 'force' and 'coercion' is another matter...Individuals are free to 'promote' any ideas the wish...However the state is the only entity that can legally initiate force against an individual...This is why I would be very skeptical about the state 'promoting' anything...Unlike me or you [individual citizens] the state can 'promote' it wishes [gun control, taxes, etc.] with the use of a prison cell or gun barrel...Do you really think that the most fair and efficient way of 'promoting' religious values is by using agencies like the IRS, DMV and US Postal Service to do your bidding?

I did not know myself that I was a neocon until I took this quizz at http://www.selectsmart.com/FREE/select.php?client=zeron.
I realized then that many of my views are more neoconservative than anything else, one view being the one you have just mentioned (promotion of Judeo Christian values around the world).
