Tell that to William Buckley.
There is nothing wrong with socially conservative until it tries to impose its views on me. Then it becomes nothing different than liberals telling free people how to live.
I understand your social views are so strong that you want to tell people how to live and so we disagree.
I stick to my position you are not a conservative, you just have a different social agenda and like a liberal - no different - you want to impose it on me and others and using government to do so.
William Buckley wasn’t pro-abortion and for gay marriage, the issues that you as a radical liberal, label “religious issues”.

“”Free Republic is a fringe right-wing Christian fundamentalist site... or so they say... and they might even be right.
We don’t go for any of that godless left-wing big government socialist malarkey. And we do put our faith and trust in God, not government. We are pro-God, pro-Life, pro-Family, pro-Country and pro-Liberty.
We do not believe that government or science knows what’s best for us or our children. We will make our own decisions thank you very much.
Every once in a while some group of posters get together and try to bend Free Republic to their will. Now, we tend to be pretty free-wheeling around here and will take a lot of guff and a lot of obnoxious insults from a lot of people, but eventually a breaking point is reached.
For example, when a group of RINO lovers recently banded together to try to force FR to accept an abortionist/gay rights RINO as our presidential candidate, they soon found themselves on the outs.””
