[Conservative til I die]

Oh, I fully expect to be vilified

I think you're going to be surprised when people are going to simply dispute your point rather than call for your head.

Don't victimize yourself.

I'm not. However, I have advanced this viewpoint before and been royally screwed over, so that's why I expect it.

As far as being a copout, I don't get your point.

I think women priests are fine.

I don't think avowed practicing homosexuals who have cheated on their wives should be made bishops.

I don't think advocating abolishment of capital punishment while accepting abortion is fine.

I don't think taking an active liberal position against the war is fine.

To be a woman is not inherently sinful--that's stupid. There are many women who should never be made priests or bishops.

I don't think homosexuality is a sin, but I don't think it's an excuse for sinful behavior.
