The conservative movement: a three legged stool.
The RINO “movement”: just a stool. No legs.
(or brains or anything else useful)
Thanks for posting this.
I truly believe that moral conservatism is essential to the success of this nation.
McCain wants to turn the 3 legged stool upside down to allow 3 log cabin republicans a seat.
There, I tied in RINOs, morals and pandering ;)
BAD DOG
LMAO!
Your stool won’t stand.
Faith means belief without and in spite of the evidence. With that as your base, you won’t be able to choose the nature or extent of political reform that will work in the real world. That requires adherence to reason, reality, and logic. Faith is the exact opposite.
Social relief means you are in agreement with the policies of the left. You simply disagree with who pays, who gets, how much, how fast, and for what justification. There is nothing of substance that is different between your position and the left.
It is a three legged stool with one leg in common with the left, the second leg is a wishful fantasy, and the third leg relies on accident to happen.
Man does not live by bread alone. There will be no conservative movement without religious and social conservatives. A society won't work just with materialism. It's silly when fiscal conservatives speak as if it can or as if Social Darwinism is the essence of conservatism.
Faith in the one true God of this world is the only force that has kept mankind from rabid degeneracy. To deny that is irrational, illogical, and false.
So....you're describing secular humanism, with its ridiculous and unsubstantiatable view of human nature?
“Steele certainly forfeited his chance to be that guy by using the leading exponent of conservatism for target practice on national TV.”
IMHO Steele forfeited his chance by being a RINO, long before this happened. This only allowed all conservatives to see Steele for who he really is and did conservatives a favor.
BTTT

The conflict comes from federal judges and federal welfare programs.
Get the feds out of American culture.
Beat it, blog pimp.
I didn’t realize the Japanese, Chinese, Indians, etc. where all Christian... or even monotheistic.
The evidence of Triune God:
The Creation is evidence of the Father;
The Gospels are evidence of the teaching, death and resurrection of the Son;
The continuing life of the Christian chruch is the evidence of the Holy Ghost.
One can disbelief the evidence or believe in it, but you cannot say that Christian faith is despite the evidence. It is belief that the evidence truly is what is appears to be. Ours is rational faith.
Since our faith is rational it is also transformative. The country won’t change unless it grows in faith. The pastor is right on that score.
I wish he elaborated on “social relief”. As it is without comment it can be some leftist concept, but it can also be, and probably is, the yearning for sound market economy, frugality and hard work, all recognized conservative values.
There are Christians, Chinese, and Indians who are monotheistic.
But their cultures without Christianity are not so hot. At least not in my book. Certainly nothing I’d ever aspire to.
