What are you referring to? Are you referring to a set of morals or ideology, or different religious sects? Please be more specific.

"Conservative Christianity" is not a sect per se. It is a term that is used to characterised the beliefs of Christians who have a strict interpretation of some of the "rules" set out in their religion. While many of the people who are commonly referred to in the media as "conservative christians" belong to the Evangelical (or "born again") sect, they can just as easily be Catholic, Orthodox, etc.

Conservative christians are usually quite pious and traditional when it comes to values pertaining to the role of men vs. women, reproductive rights, and sexual rights, as can be seen in high-profile media coverage of such contentious topics as gay marriage and abortion in the U.S.

This is not to say that all conservative christians are anti-gay or anti-abortion. Some may have tolerant beliefs in this regard, but may be conservative in other areas.

I am a christian. A follower of Christ who prefers not to carry any other labels. I believe the Bible is the world of God and I am comfortable meeting with Gods people no matter what denomination.

There are conservative Christians and true Christians. I much prefer the latter of the two.

I am not a Conservative....but a lifelong registered Libertarian.

I am Baptized, therefore I am a Christian. I call myself a Catholic.

I don't care what others may call me.

Liberal Christians and Moderate Chrsitians. Which says nothing about the degree of their devotion, only their dogma and ideals. Much less severe and much more esoteric and thougtful.
