Muslim and conservative are for me the same thing.

In the United States Muslims swing left, Jews swing either way, most Christians swing hard right, Catholics tend to swing more right than left, Hindus tend to swing right more often than left, Buddhists swing left, and a good majority of Lutherans swing left. 

In my opinion all five major religions, save Buddhism, have all become increasingly conservative (that’s one of the main reasons I left, socialists/anarchists don’t get along well with the Catholic Church). In America most of the far right is made up of Christians, though I will conclude that minority religions contribute quite a bit to the far left.

I don’t think you can religious and truly free. I think the world would be better off without religion, though I wouldn’t take people’s rights to worship away. I will argue against it heavily, but people have the right to believe in a higher power.

I think the problem is with people predenting to be releagous and that they know everything about this religion so they can't be argued , that's what make some people hate to being stuck to any religion cuz of these people , but if u understand well this religion and deeply read about it from different people with different point of views i think you'll change your mind a bit or at least make a fair opinion of what this religion is truly about

Interestingly here it mostly seems to be all the same: right, hard right, harder right etc :p In things like surveys, a scarily large group of Muslims and Christians (although less of them than years ago, apart from the way too Christian towns like the one I live in) and so on generally show they are rather strongly in favour of having no equal rights for people who fall outside their strict 'moral beliefs'. A frightingly large number answers questions like "How bad is it when people are attacked for being gay?" with answers on the scale of "Too bad, but they shouldn't be gay then". I don't know how the groups tend to stand on economical issues, that's a bit less investigated :p

Of course depends of the country, here the muslims are practically all conservatives and that is what i see of them all over the world, it isnt a "bad thing" at all, like all things, its has the good and bad aspects.

are you considerer socialist?, is something shocking coming from somebody of USA, on the other hand, is a good thing of you the tolerance for religious people, for me the problem is not the religio, is the fanatism (in everything).

Bernie Sanders got 13 million votes in the primaries of 2016 and the total electors in the final vote was 127 million. That's a good 10% of the people voting "socialist", as you would say.

    • 2 things...   first, for what concerns the cooperation between inline skating and speedskating federations...sorry to disppoint some of you, but there's a great cooperation between them   the point is that many "summer" skaters just don't want to try the ice because they have too much to give up for that   you name places like Collalbo or Baselga, but for the "summer skating" guys from centeral and southern regions it's not an option, it's not that they make it for a living with those disciplines, they have to focus on their studies and build a post-competitive sport career and they just can't place themselves into a hole in the mountains when they maybe are studying in some prestigious universities in the big cities   as I already posted more than once, the idea of covering one of those tracks in the mountains was something idiotic, a political concession impossible to be sustained   the one and only chance to build a true legacy and an efficient, attractive national training center was to build a permanent indoor oval in Milan, beside the Forum   that would have given all the "summer skaters" a true opportunity to try the ice experience and at the same time find the most useful, attractive, prestigious places to continue their studies and try and manage them together with their sports career   any other place wouldn't stand a chance   second...don't give Salvini any credit he doesn't deserve...actually, I think he doesn't even know that in Cortina there's a sliding sports track    it's not thanks to him that the Cortina track's building finally went underway 
    • c'mon, guys! relax! sciallatevi un po'!    you're making me sick...it's just the season start and this is a sport where only the world championship (and Olympic, in the specific years) medals count   don't get mad for a couple of races held thousend miles away from home after the team had already passed their first climax (the internal selection)...there are still 2 full seasons before the Olympics
    • Super Round Results   21/11    b.   2-0  b.   9-1   22/11    b.   8-2  b.   9-6   nothing is decided yet, all teams still have a thoretical chance to make the Gold Medal match   Tomorrow, the last day of the Super Round sees  facing the  at Noon local time (4 a.m. CET) and  facing  at 7 p.m. local time (11 a.m. CET)   the medal games are scheduled for Sunday, BMM at Noon local, GMM at 7 p.m. local
    • very poor performance by the US bullpen both Yesterday and Today    not very impressed by this US team for the entire tournament, also in the Mexican first group (Panama deserved to qualify more than them, but they were lucky with the draw and won the decisive direct matchup)   Venezuela confirmed themselves as a very strong team at bat, but with too many troubles on the mound   Today against Japan they had to make a pitching change already in the 1st inning and basically they had to go for a bullpen game, but it didn't come out like the Dodgers'   Japan always on top of their game, even when the pitching staff doesn't perform at best...frankly, they look more and more unbeatable when no MLB superstar is involved (like in this case), but also when it comes down to the top of the pops it's not that they look worse (see 2023 WBC)  there's a serious risk that their domination becomes even too easy, the gap between them and the rest of the world is widening year after year   Taiwan might look like a surprise, but after the 2023 fail, I was sure they were going to rebound and establish themselves among the top teams in the WBSC tournaments, as they are very good in each and every aspect of the game (batting, pitching...maybe a bit less on defense, but you can't have it all)
