Civil Discussion Between Liberals & Conservatives NTS Fallacy.

[Free Trade is managed by the invisible hand.]

It is all very subjective what the terms Liberal and Conservative may mean. If someone says that they are conservative, and vote conservative I will respect their opinion because it is right the thing to do. On the other hand if someone says "such and such is not a true conservative" despite what the accused individual thinks, I will come to the accused defense. I do this because I honestly think it is the right thing to do, and have always found such flammatory tactics to be uncivil.

non-denominational Christians like to argue that Catholics are not true christians, and vice versa. Anyone who has lived in an area where such a division is prominent would realize how destructive such an argument could be.

In the end we may feel that we have the right to our own opinions, and this should be respected. Problems only come about when we start treating opinions like fact, and build a strong conviction from any subjective assertion.

I realize that I may not always be the most "honorable" person, but I will never bring myself down to the level of religious bigotry that I have personally experienced. Because of this I should never use the word Neo-Conservative, Socialist, Communist, Liberal, Libertarian in a derogatory sense.

In short if i have ever argued that someone is not a True-conservative/Liberal/Christian than I was dead wrong. I should be more respectful of another persons "opinion,faith" and hopefully so will others.
