Which is my point -- there is 'socially' conservative, where say you are against homosexuality as a sin.
And then there is 'politically' conservative, where you say I believe it's a sin but I don't believe the govt has any right to impose this belief on others.
That's not how the term "socially conservative" is used in practice.

That's not how the term "socially conservative" is used in practice. I'm not sure I really agree there, but for our purposes here I'm attempting to define what seperates us and what unites us, so that we can come together to form a consensus on what we decide we all do agree on. Maybe I'm on the wrong track, I'm not sure. It just seemed like something that might be worth trying.
So please forgive me if I venture away a little bit from the beaten path. :-)
