It is clearly obvious the original poster has no desire for any serious discussion about the topic of conservatism.
I for one am not going to engage in further discussion on what could have been a good discussion.
I have given you scenarios where your conservative principles should also apply...as in freedom for gays to join the military or for Muslims to say prayers in public schools. But you said you would deny gays their freedom, and are silent about Muslim school prayers. Am I to infer that the gifts of conservatism should only be showered on certain privileged groups?
No dude. You are confused. It's clear that you don't understand conservatism when you talked about sacrificing yourself for the greater society as being a conservative tenet. It is not. It is a collectivist, socialist tenet that you mistakenly thought was conservative.

So you think fairness should be based on who or what people want to have sex with instead this is a man and this is a woman and both men and women can join the military? I think if you seperate yourself based on the urges below the belt you should be seperated. Gays have the same freedoms everyone has. What they choose do do in their bedrooms should stay on their bedrooms.
Muslim teaches to hate homosexuals. Do you want Muslims to pray in schools?
I consider myself a conservative because I agree with personal responsibility, family first(all types), religion (all), gun rights, reduced spending (government), free market(corporations). I would say the biggest thing for me is personal responsibly nothing drives me more crazy then people who don't try then blame everyone else for their situation.
I am also liberal though. I agree with gay marriage and think abortion should be legal.

Dude, I'm looking for coherence in your self-definition of conservative. So far, I see none. All I see is a medley of contradictions about who should enjoy the freedoms that you conservatives pay lip service to. Yeah, should Muslims be allowed to pray in public schools? What do you - a self-proclaimed conservative - think about that?
Okay here's an easy one: should conservatives support the Patriot Act?
The only ignorance I see is coming from someone who says sacrficing himself for the good of society is conservative. That person would actually fit very well living in communist Cuba.

Dude? Are you like 15 dude? Yes Muslims are fully against homosexuality so they should pray in the schools. That's where they are all hanging out now days.
One cannot have a discussion with anyone that has not elevetated their education above a term used by teenagers.
This op does not want any answers, he looking to bicker.
Believe me dude, my education is way beyond your ability to surpass.
