"So you're not claiming that religious Conservatives are more prone to error than religious Liberals?" <- Is that what you just said? That is, you just said, "I'm not claiming that religious Conservatives are more prone to error than religious Liberals?"
Or do you mean that you just said, "religious Conservatives are more prone to error than religious liberals"?
What I wrote is still up there and you're free to read it again.
Quote:My point is that calling something 'common knowledge' isn't a convincing argument.
And if we were conducting a scientific experiment rather than a casual debate, I'd agree with you 100%.
Quote:That's good evidence that Gingrich, Bachmann, Santorum, Cain, and Perry don't support same-sex marriage. I'm not sure it's good evidence that Republicans are largely proud of viewing homosexuals as less than human.
I'd say it's a pretty good sample of conservatives proudly and publicly demonstrating their contempt for the human rights of gay people using religion as their excuse. I have no intention of quote-mining every Republican politician in America just to satisfy you.
If you can demonstrate evidence that liberal politicians oppose gay marriage on religious grounds in equal or greater number to conservative politicians doing the same, I will concede that my assertion, and common knowledge, are incorrect.
