Conservatism is to capitalism as liberalism is to socialism.

Not really related?

No, that would be your post to my post.

Please explain what you mean. I don't think that either has much to do with either.

Conservatism, like any other term, can mean anything you want it to mean. But I don't know anyone else here who does not associate economic conservatism with capitalism.

Perhaps, but that's with another word added in front of it. It is certainly possible for something to be conservative but not capitalist.

Don was responding to Finn, who explicitly referred to economic conservatism:

After Satanism the most economically conservative religion is Hinduism, because of the caste system. Traditional Calvinism is also very conservative economically.

Or, the other way around, capitalist and not conservative.

I doubt it. Jesus was apolitical, not a liberal, not a conservative, etc.
