Thanks for the constructive comments. For me it means more. This is about actually changing myself. I will no longer even attempt to adhere to a party line in my positions. I was never doctrinaire about conservatism but it is the place on the spectrum that represents many of my attitudes. I retain the positions I've stated in this thread. I'm letting go of the human-services positions because a simple analysis of the actual situation in the US is that we have a great many human-services initiatives and legislation already in place and I am interested in accepting and listening to the sound of what is real rather than shouting into an echo chamber.
Everyone knows I have never had truck with those whose political positions are motivated by religious beliefs. I respect their views but they are simply not my own.
I am not so easily pigeonholed and in the future I will be even less so. And the reason I feel compelled to move forward on this path is because I respect my fellow citizens too much to simply dismiss so many of their honestly held views out of hand.
I'm dedicated to journeying through the actual future and not simply being a signpost in a single direction that may or may not point the way.
