You say you were in civil rights movement back in the 60's were you wearing a sheet? I did NOT say all change comes from liberals. You are getting as good as twisting words around as some others here. I offered a GENERAL definition of the words liberal v conservative that's all. You know as well as I we can sit here all day and point to what we wish to point to. Is Jackson now a conservative and Buckley a liberal for their opposing drug views as an example. I have many aspects of my being conservative but I guess guys like you take the side you want to see and fix the label on that viewpoint.I guess everything is relative to a point on a continuum but I have heard the religious right state nothing is relative as it all boils down to the absolutism of their religious beliefs. Incidentally I came to my opinion of all religion being bs a long time ago when as a child I saw the church try to throw us out because we didn't give enough and their refusal to bury my grandfather. We all left then and I take offense at your supposed maturation that you made this discovery a long time ago. So what you are older now and approaching death and like WC Fields are looking for a loophole and trying to get religion to save your ass, that's maturity? No that's hypocrisy unless you've "seen" the light or got the message I guess

Seems like Webster's definition of liberal v conservative are right in line with Ms Jones and others of the liberal persuasion. He was a little more genorous to the liberal wasn't he. The thing I can't really figure out is Christ was a gentle, forgiving,passionate,omniscient,omnipedent,caring,just,unselfish man that martyred himself supposedly died for us. How the hell come his followers are so UNLIKE him so ANTI-CHRIST as Mr Vaughn would put. I havn't seen one ounce of Christly compassion out of any of these vindictive hypocrites, nothing but venom and let's crucify some one. Kind of makes a believer out of one doesn't it?
