If you're liberal, I believe your faith is in doubt

If you are 13 years old then I suggest you bring your parents into this discussion.

It's never a good thing to talk to strangers on the internet at your age.

At 13, I was watching Transformers. The last of my worries were what liberals or conservatives thought about. :)

Not that you can't talk about politics, but you should have some guidance through this.

I don't know. Doesn't sound like a 13 year old even despite the stupidity of the comments. Could be the sock-puppet of an older adult -- or something along those lines -- who is happily trolling us today. Too little information to go on at this point. But at least if the account is a sock puppet, "she" has now made a list of accounts to watch.

I was thinking the same, but extended the benefit of the doubt.

When I was 13 I was posting on a Jack the Ripper forum and wondering whether some penile deformity caused him to lash out and murder and mutilate prostitutes. I'd also written a smut novel and acquired a copy of the Communist Manifesto. At 14 I'd devoured 4 books about Stalin. So eh.

Well, I would still suggest you or anyone at 13-14 to have adult supervision on the net. :)

I bet no one ever mistook you for normal. ;) Which is a good thing, because normal is so boring.

You may very well think that, but I have to ask: how much you know about these other religions you're trying to lump into your premise?

Just as an example: Buddhism has a liberal spirit at it's fundamental core.

It was a progressive moment at it's inception. It would have been seen as radical by some in the 'conservative establishment' of India.

It tried to take down what it saw as forces of oppression like the caste system. It does not accept terms like untouchable caste and unworthy human beings in it's language.

I don't really expect you'll acknowledge that though. Seems like you've already made up your mind about liberals and religion.

I will tell you that the modern conservative movement is anti-thetical to just about everything Buddhism stands for. Conservatives are encouraged not to care how their actions effect anything else. They don't care what their cruelty to other people does to them, or what greed does to greater society and our world.
