If atheism and conservatism are incompatible, then I am not a conservative.

Yep

Conservative atheists are the ones who vote conservative and seldom mention their beliefs and don’t seek out groups to join so they can proclaim their atheism.

Agenda atheism is about as compatible with conservatism as agenda homosexuality.

[Fester Chugabrew]

A preponderance of atheists hanker for moral relativism, and as such, their foundation in conflict with the standards of virtue necessary for a free and prosperous society. It is not that no atheist can abide or thrive under such conditions, but that most of them prefer amorality and relish the confusion that ensues. There is danger in setting up the individual as the sole arbiter of right and wrong; in rugged individualism. A virtuous, prosperous society will take measures accountable also to, and for, the neighbor.

Deists are not atheists. They’re a softer more tolerable version of a pagan.

Besides, Atheism is only a transitional state.

They clearly aren’t, the proof is that almost all atheists are liberal democrats, and are very powerful as leaders of the left and of liberalism, the few that vote with republicans, are almost all liberal republicans, judging by the ones on FR.

Even those few are almost all dedicated to challenging true conservatism and making the GOP more liberal.

A conservative atheist is a rare egg, hardly worth devoting much time to.

Conservative thought and atheism are not compatible.
Godlessness leads to rejecting GOD GIVEN INALIENABLE RIGHTS.
Rights that are inherent in humanity that are given by God as the founders stated.
Atheism denies what the founders stated and believed.
Conservative thought seeks to preserve what the founders created and intended.

The Pilgrims and Puritans were Christians who came to this country seeking religious liberty. Early America, except for a few deists here and there (almost all of them Freemasons), was very much Christian. America was certainly NOT founded by atheists.

Conservatives seek to “conserve,” or preserve, original beliefs and values, in America’s case, it’s Christian heritage. Enter Notary Sojac an atheist who claims he is an American conservative. Is he seeking to “conserve” the Christian heritage of America? Absolutely not. He, thus, is no American conservative.

Maoist China was founded on atheism, there are “conservatives” there who bemoan the Christian meetings now taking place, who seek to “conserve” that country’s original atheism. Seems to me like Sojac should move to China, his kind of atheist conservatism would fit right in.

Contrast the atheist with the christian or moslem.

The atheist won't kill you for not agreeing with them.

The other two groups have been known to do that frequently, with great vigor and perseverance.

[Just mythoughts]

I do not buy this Atheism claim. Every body has a ‘god’. Whatever any soul places their faith/trust in is their god. It really does not matter in the long term scheme of things, all ‘souls/spirit intellect’ return to the Maker that sent them. And all souls/spirit intellect get the opportunity to return with a blank slate.

[CatherineofAragon]

Just saw you on another thread getting ready to pop popcorn and watch the Christian denominations go at it.

Guess you were a little premature.

Let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be
maintained without religion. Reason and experience both forbid us to
expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle.

Proposed Seal for the United States

On July 4, 1776, Congress appointed Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson and John Adams "to bring in a device for a seal for the United States of America." Franklin's proposal adapted the biblical story of the parting of the Red Sea . Jefferson first recommended the "Children of Israel in the Wilderness, led by a Cloud by Day, and a Pillar of Fire by night. . . ." He then embraced Franklin's proposal and rewrote it. Jefferson's revision of Franklin's proposal was presented by the committee to Congress on August 20. Although not accepted these drafts reveal the religious temper of the Revolutionary period. Franklin and Jefferson were among the most theologically liberal of the Founders, yet they used biblical imagery for this important task.

Atheism is a preposterous philosophy presuming the understanding of another person’s deity.
