Sure, it was clever to make a post with that headline that makes one hesitate, before clicking on it, whether it will be about American conservatives or about some other religious group, but I doubt you will find anyone at all, even among your own side, who would subscribe to these comments here, nor do they exactly inspire potentially valuable discussions. I like a good controversial post as much as the next guy and probably more than most, but this doesn't strike me as a great example.

i suppose it comes from years of posting regular articles and comments to this site and being told i am myopic for trying to bring attention to something that negatively affects the conservative viewpoint that the majority here seems to hold. or maybe it just seems like a majority because only political posts and posters post to the CMB anymore. i'm honestly not sure why i keep coming back here, except in the fervent hope that the various posters who actually believe the same things the article mentions will one day believe in reason and objective reality again. it's a very long shot, i know....
