As a Liberal it is easy to see many flaws in the Conservative mindset. Every time a Conservative spews forth some pathetic self-righteous utterance we as Liberals react. We feel the passion against their drivel deep in our guts, but many times we fail to see the rational evidence against their position. Our thought is based on a belief that there is a definite right and wrong, and we must always do right. Righteousness is based on a belief that regardless of our state it still exists. We cannot justify doing wrong because we do not make the rules, and if we were to die tomorrow right would still be right. A defining principle of Conservativeism is moral relativism in which right and wrong are defined by an individual’s position in life. Here in lies the problem that we as Liberals face.
