Demanding that taxpayers support new social programs with questionable goals without even providing overwhelming evidence of their success is not conservative.

Maintaining the sexual roles and mores that have been foundational for millennia against new experiments is a questionable goal?

Obviously I disagree. Just like I disagree with you that the phrase "I've always figured" is just a semantic oddity.

Celibacy isn't a problem for the priesthood. Pretending a mental disorder is normal and acceptable for priests is the problem. Easy to fix, like the Boy Scouts.

Shalom.

I could come up with a dozen hypothetical programs off the top of my head that various people would say fit your statement that you'd agree are a questionable. Hell, half the dictators that ever existed probably fell back on something like that (absent the "sexual roles" comment). One guy posting here wanted to send gays to some kind of camps until they recovered. What do you think? (I have to delay a reply until late tonight or tomorrow. Things to do...)
