Conserv Yourself

Today's conservative principle might be something that progressives will fight us tooth and nail on, but I believe it is true.  Today's conservative principle is that everyone, every human being, has either expressed, lived out, or at least subconscious conservative values.  We take a look at and responding to a NYT opinion video titled "Liberal Hypocrisy is Fueling American Inequality. Here’s How."

Today's conservative principle is that we understand that the freedoms of our country are not safe without the guard of those who understand that liberty is but a short breath away from tyranny.  It is the citizens of this nation, steeped in the rich history, good and bad, that are the guardians of liberty, and we know that the guard's watch never ends to keep the rot of tyranny at bay.

Today's conservative principle is we can expose the faulty beliefs of others not by statements from our side, but by asking good questions and allowing them to almost refute themselves.  We take a look at the "Columbo Tactic" from Greg Koukl's book Tactics.

Today's conservative principle is we will hold to the traditional, Judeo-Christian idea of sexual ethic.  Father's getting arrested, cancel culture, leftist are anti-everything.  Books can't be cancelled.

We discuss Facebook today.  Today's conservative principle is we value the personal freedom that liberty affords, but we will cautiously investigate the benefits and concerns of the important influences in our lives.  While we live as individuals, we also are highly impacted by people and things that are outside of each of us.

Today's conservative principle is we will consider hard the ramifications of the 2nd Amendment not only as to the firearms available to the people but also to the true reason for the amendment - a well regulated militia.

Today's conservative principle is we will take a historical approach to the effects in America due to slavery, Jim Crow south, and other racism observed in history, but we don't buy into the racialization of every current issue as would be defined through critical race theory, intersectionality, or identity politics.

AOC.  Treason.  California Recall.  Norm Macdonald.  Today's conservative principle is we will keep up with the times keeping track of news-worthy events happening around us, but we go further to think deeper on the meanings of these stories.

With the Supreme Court declining to stop the Texas Heartbeat Law, abortions are effectively banned in the state of Texas after 6 weeks of pregnancy.  Today's conservative principle is that we uphold the sanctity of human life. 

Today's conservative principle is we feel that western civilization has produced the principles that have produced the richest, most free, and greatest source of individual liberty.
