Do you ever review your values?

Big softy pinko liberal here calling!

Maybe I'm wrong though! Time to be judgemental, exclusive, ...etc..etc.. maybe?

Do you ever think you might be dead wrong in the way you look at the world!?

I used to be one of the "let's be tolerant of different faiths" types... reading 'Letter To A Christian Nation' and TGD made me seriously review my shallow 'coexistence' mindset and it changed my way of thinking. I suppose that was a shift in values. :dunno:

Maybe there's something in this! I can't be 'turning' surely!!!?? :o

From: http://www.conservapedia.com/Liberal_values

Liberal values refers to the value system commonly held by liberals, just as Professor values and Hollywood values do for professors and Hollywood respectively. Liberal values stand in stark opposition to conservative values and thus reject those things which conservatives hold to be dear and true. This includes, but is not limited to:

failure to warn people, particularly youngsters, about the harm caused by a lack of conservative values.
Censorship of ideas not deemed politically correct. E.g., Liberal students protest or disrupt conservative guest speakers on college campuses.
Denial of politically incorrect truths such as the link between abortion and breast cancer.
Opposition to the free market, instead favoring heavy regulation.
A desire for equal outcomes as opposed to equal opportunity.
Excessive emphasis on awards and titles, especially those awarded by liberal institutions.
To judge something immoral behavior is tantamount to being a bigot.
Bigotry itself, an almost uniquely liberal trait.
Confusing separation of church and state with atheism.
A willingness to excuse any aggressive and irreverent behaviour in other countries, while harshly criticizing their own.
Strict materialism and an overreliance on narrowly defined "reality".
Contempt for authorities.
Mistaking conclusions for facts.

In general, liberal values tend to undermine traditional society, and in certain instances can cause irreparable harm to the lives of individuals who are brought under their sway.

values? like I ever had occasion to live by them or I were exposed to dilemmas involving them...

I'm pretty sure I got some, but they'll likely find them in some box after my death, packed with some other stuff I had to leave behind at a time or other.

Seriously, last time I upheld value in which I believed, I only managed to turn a bad situation into a complete disaster, whereas forgetting those values then might have avoided or mitigated any amount of unpleasantness.

Not anymore. I became a complete Luddite some years ago. It went wrong when the first bow and arrow was invented.

I constantly review my values. I thought black shoes were my favourite, but today I saw some nice blue ones, and found the shift in my values challenging, but ultimately achievable. :levi:

Yes I used to be much more tolerant about Islam but these days I'm not at all. I'm not willing to see the freedoms others have fought for in the UK be eroded by mediaeval bollocks just because it's inclusive to other views. Bugger other views if they are about eroding our freedom to be independent women or openly gay.
