Why is it that Christian fundamentalism and conservative politics are so often entwined??

Not all conservatives are stupid, but stupid people tend to be conservative.Stupid people tend to have trouble thinking things through and considering logical implications, and dealing intellectually with ambiguity and nuance.Stupid people are therefore easily led and are attracted to rigid ideologies and doctrines that they can follow without questioning them.Stupid people vote.

This morning I noticed that someone had written a long article on Hillary Clinton. I noticed, because last night it was only a paragraph long. It mentioned that she was involved in the national health care debate a few years ago. "National health care" was a link, and when I clicked on it I got the page on Communism.

Wow, I had no idea that Canada was a Communist nation!

Rat, read what I said;While NOT ALL conservatives are stupid, stupid people TEND to be conservative.Nowhere in that statement (which is a paraphrase of a John Stuart Mill quote, btw) does it say that most conservatives are stupid.It is speaking broadly about the tendencies of stupid people to be conservative, not the stupidity of conservatives.

I am trouble by many of their definitions. I say that I am troubled by them because they use loose definitions, inaccurate definitions, or completely nonsensical definitions. In doing so, they unwittingly create their own biased encyclopedia, something they alleged they wanted to get away from in the first place. And since I might generally consider myself a conservative, it upsets me that they end up giving me a black eye by default.

The thing is, this is the sort of thing that is typical of many conservative sources of information and opinion.What they perceive as "no bias" is actually "bias in favor of conservatism".Conservatives get that mixed up all the time.
