Why are conservatives such cowards???
I have thought of joining Free Republic or Lucianne to make posts for good old give and take and question them.. but I have seen that when ever someone makes a post with progressive views they get booted off the site.. DU does not boot conservatives when they post here.. Sheeesh!!! Such cowards!!!

4. It's part of the authoritarian mindset (see link below)
Their limited view of the world is based on a philosophical house of cards. One false move and the entire thing collapses.

It's sort of like biblical literalism. One tiny detail wrong (http://skepticsannotatedbible.com/) and the entire theory collapses. Biblical criticism notes the difficulties but the core message remains intact.
