As a theoretical ideal, a confessional state in which the state truly did not interfere with the doctrine of the faith and in which the rights of individuals not to be coerced on matters of conscience would be best. Such a thing is not practical under modern conditions, given the left-wing currents of thought widespread in society, I would not trust any government to leave the Church alone. In modern conditions, I think a regime of true religious freedom is best.

Correct, so myself and the other monarchists here are trying to fight those currents - including its most widespread symptom - egalitarian democracy. But you want to classify us as leftists - completely bizarre. I have been called many things in my life, but never a freakin' liberal LOL (in less they meant a "classic liberal", i used to be one of those).
