I truly enjoy and respect everyone here on the Mudcat despite the many differences of opinion on various topics including Religion and Politics. I sincerely try to respect the religions of other people as well as their political persuasions.

It would be totally awesome, but mostly un-realistic for the people gathered here, to do the same for the Republicans and Christians who post here as well.

One can have an honest and intelligent disagreement with someone without sounding condescending and elitist, and militant.

I don't hate liberal intellectuals or other world religions, so why should Republican and Christians be barred from discussions, and be chastised for even voicing their opinion?

There is after all such a thing as free speech, and one merely should say in a polite tone, "I disgree with you, and for the following reasons, but let's still be friends"

As A Conservative, I have many liberal friends that I DEEPLY admire. Yes, even as a conservative I admire their liberalism. I know a Friend of mine that has done some wondeful work for charities and civil rights, as well as promote justice and health care benefits for the elderly.

It may surprise you that are liberal, but sometimes even we conservatives do great things, like promote decency standards, individual responsibilty, lower taxes, freedom etc.


I generally try to avoid posting on these subjects as they become very, very heated around certain individuals.

Please mudcatters, grow up!

Let's disagree and still get along without trying to change, hate or defeat someone else. Let's see our difference as a strength and keep an open mind to another point of view, even the Dreaded Christian Republican one.

We conservatives don't hate you! So why do you go around intolerant of us, we seldom post our point of view to begin with.

We as conservatives never deny you your point of view, we in fact cherish it, even when we do not always agree.
