re: #48 recusancy

Quick ideological question…

When I think of the word “conservatism” I would think that “conservation” would be somewhere in there. Why is it that any form of conservation such as maybe driving a smaller/slower car then you’d like or recycling is scoffed at? It always goes to nuclear energy - because then nobody would have to conserve or give up anything. I’m not against nuclear but that’s not a fix all.

Why does sacrifice only come in the form of religious devotion or blood on the battle field?

(I’m not impugning anyone here)

And you’re not addressing anyone here either, since most of the conservatives here are moderate, and have no problem with recognizing the need to be careful with out environment.

So, who are you talking to?
