View source for Debate:Is it possible to be conservative and know there is no possibility of there ever being a "God" and/or higher being?

Most of the people I know call me conservative-independent, because I believe in many values such as unsociallised medicine, taxation favouring the wealthy, etc. However, I am also an ardent atheist. Would I be classified as conservative?

==Yes==
I've encountered and listened to several people label themselves as a conservative while they eschew almost every leftist point in the book. They consider themselves middle of the road or moderate conservatives. Sometimes you can even reason with them until they agree with conservatism until a day or week later when they've returned to original middle of the road or moderate positions. Usually anyone not a hardcore radical leftist who think being to the right of the extreme makes them conservative. It is a label of convenience for a person that tolerates any opinion but will rarely, if ever, take a stand on anything.--[[User:Roopilots6|Roopilots6]] 12:51, 18 May 2009 (EDT)

Are you familiar with [http://www.lp.org/ Libertarian] values? If a moniker should be applied to you, it sounds like that would be appropriate. --[[User:NicholasT|NicholasT]] 11:38, 17 April 2009 (EDT)
