::@ [[User:YankeeDoodleDandy|YankeeDoodleDandy]] It looks like there is a meme running through much of your beliefs in that somehow the Enlightenment is anti-conservative.  It isn't.  Christianity was considered rational and '''reason'''able for a large percentage of the Enlightenment.[https://oll.libertyfund.org/titles/locke-the-works-vol-6-the-reasonableness-of-christianity]  Many of the great thinkers of the Enlightenment(early, early-mid) are all deeply convicted Christians, or at least firmly believing.  Much of what taints "the Enlightenment" is stacked up toward the end, with the French and Germanics in general and Kant/Marx and the French Revolution in particular.  The fact that the Daily Kos is saying that conservatism is romantic is even more of a reason to reject the idea outright.  The cherry on the top of the cake is that "Liberalism" always meant "small government", until the 1930s when progressives in general and FDR in particular abandoned the word progressivism and took over the word liberalism.  Hoover was pissed that Roosevelt did this, but nonetheless, it presents a significant problem for this article.
