I've missed some of this debate, but I would like to point out
that it's the liberals on this list (or "Intoleristas", if you
prefer) that come across as the most dogmatic of the two main
groups on this list (Intoleristas/liberals vs.
conservatives/Christ Church members). No conservative has ever
told me that I shouldn't make posts of a certain type (such as
those sceptical of global climate change). It was the
Intoleristas that spent a lot of time and effort trying to
convince me that boycotting businesses run by Christ Church
members wasn't somehow intolerant of another religion. It's not
the conservatives on this list that personally attack me and my
recently deceased relatives. Every time I suggest that we just
try to get along with Christ Church members (and that we should be
showing how much better we are supposed to be welcoming them to
our community despite our differences) I get subjected to long
treatises on how evil they are and how much we liberals need to
fight them lest they take over the world or something. I have
spent so much time on this list defending Christ Church or it's
members that I'm surprised they haven't made me an honorary
member.<br>
<br>
It's one of the reasons I no longer consider myself a "liberal".
I need a laundry list of parts of other political viewpoints to
describe myself now. Currently, I'm a social liberal, fiscal
conservative, and civil libertarian. That may change as I learn
more. For this, I thank the Intoleristas. Oh, and Mr. Obama.<br>
<br>
Tom just seems to be the most dogmatic of the bunch, and the
quickest to make things personal.<br>

The parallels are pretty obvious Tom:<br>
<br>
Christ Churchers unfortunately blindly follow Doug Wilson,
Intoleristas unfortunately blindly follow Tom Hansen<br>
Doug Wilson and Tom Hansen believe 'it's my way, or the highway'
and foster an 'us vs them' mentality<br>
Doug Wilson and Tom Hansen will never admit any mistakes they've
made because they believe it's a sign of weakness to do so - and
instead just both come off as looking ridiculous in the process<br>
