→Basis of determining values: But the Tea Party concept is taught more in liberal history textbooks than Christianity is. And I'm not sure how one could censor the Tea Party Movement, while it is
::I see what you're saying, but I find it hard to accept that the Tea Party, which has been around for less than 24 months, should be regarded as more resilient than Christianity. In 50 or 100 years, I know one will be around and thriving, but the other...? (I'm not close-minded, but you'll have to forgive my pro-Christianity bias, Andy :-) ) --[[User:ChrisY|ChrisY]] 10:39, 28 May 2010 (EDT)

:::The Tea Party itself won't be around in fifty years, but the values that underpin it might well be. The French Revolution only lasted a short time, but liberty, fraternity and equality are still going strong.--[[User:CPalmer|CPalmer]] 11:07, 28 May 2010 (EDT)

:::In addition to CPalmer's point, the issue is not resilience, but resilience ''to censorship''. Christianity is stronger and with greater history than the [[Tea Party Movement]]. But the Tea Party concept is taught more in liberal history textbooks than Christianity is. And I'm not sure how one could censor the Tea Party Movement, while it is obvious how liberals are censoring Christianity.
:::This entry does not try make subjective claims about which is better, or which is stronger. It focuses on '''censorability''' alone.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 11:49, 28 May 2010 (EDT)
