Absolutely, I was too specific. I do generally lean one way and wanted to say something along the lines with "these people are idiots but I agree with them" ... but I was in no way implying that conservatives or folks on whatever alignment axis were reasonable.
I'd like to rephrase: the defining societal problem of the 21st century is going to be the failure to recognize that we've solved all of the big black and white issues with blunt tools which fit into the Christian good vs. evil narrative but we will keep trying to solve the grey-area issues with those same dumb tools. The failure is one of lacking appreciation for subtlety and nuance in the definition and solution of our problems.
Good vs. evil, clear cut rights and wrongs are issues of the past.
