Well I'm a rightish pothead. I'm comfortable with the label libertarian but more comfortable with the label conservative, just because I think it's funny to be a conservative Atheist. But yeah I agree that some conservative Christians feel the need to make atheists their total enemy by pretending that they disagree with them on everything. I think a lot of conservative Atheists are also not that into their Atheism, they are more just casual Atheists, not really the firebrand type that these forums get. I'm fairly apolitical and more into religious and philosophical issues than political one. Also a forum member I talk to privately told me that they know lots of conservative Atheists but that they tend to be far more likely to be in the closet than others.

I am right wing as well - I am better classified as a classic liberal. I agree with libertarians on some things, but I'm not capitalist enough to be labelled a libertarian - Assuming you know what libertarianism means (the right wing libertarianism) and the dichotomy between minarchists and anarcho-capitalists If I was socially conservative I'd be a full conservative.

For curiosity, why do you call yourself a conservative? For example, do you agree with this:

http://www.kirkcenter.org/index.php/deta...rinciples/

I post on a forum for politics, it's full of ideologically diverse people. I get along with conservatives, but we disagree on some things like gay marriage, abortion etc. That list of principles seems to be important for conservatives. I also think conservatism doesn't mean the same in every country because what is meant to be preserved is different. For example, American conservatives are liberal on economics because the US was founded on the principles of liberalism (how ironic!), but conservatives in Europe are pro-government intervention because it's tradition
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
