I haven't read what your original topic was about and I honestly do not care, but what I care about is the sentence you posted. I know you said it in a specific point, but I am a conservative. And I think I do have a heart. The idea of conservative we have is wrong. It is not "pray to the old stuff", it is about, viewing happenings from the distance. And when you have enough information to decide, you can do so.
Conservative is not necessarily bad. I as example always have the customer (at work) in the viewpoint. The bait has to be tasty for the fish, not for the fisher. Go slow, go with thinking about it, and never rush decisions.
Nobody likes to think of themselves as a bad person. But heaps of people are. Hell, I am a bad person. I work everyday to be a better person. Because I want to be good.
If you voted for Trump you are not a good person. If you are Anti-Choice you are not a good person. If you believe likes like welfare queens and all immigrants are either drug runners or terrorist you are not a good person. If you think gay and trans people don't deserve the same rights and protect as everyone else you are not a good person.
If none of the above are true for you rethink what you are gaining by hanging on to conservatism. Cuz you are aligning yourself with the wicked and cruel.
