"Free Country" does not mean free from criticism, or did this suddenly become a democrat board?
Heavens to betsy no...However, I would argue that moral absolutism is more of a liberal trait than a conservative one. It's always been my understanding that conservatives stood for self reliance and with self reliance comes self-determination etc. etc. So, you pretty much get to live your life as you best see fit.
Funny, I always though redefining traditional principles which are "inconvenient" was the quintessential trait of a liberal. I guess I've got all those gop evangelicals all wrong...
I would argue that moral absolutes are neither liberal nor conservative. There is no placement whatsoever on the political continuum for this trait.
Of course, I've always believed that moral absolutes simply means that some actions (or omission) are clearly right or wrong regardless of where you are politically.
It's also notable that this definition fits in with conservative principles--or as I sometimes like to say, conservative orthodoxy.
We believe in self-determination, but we also believe that there are some things that are just absolutely wrong. Notwithstanding those things which are clearly and inherently wrong, we as conservatives believe it's pretty much up to you to live your life as you see fit.
