Much of the old time conservatives like Ayn Rand definitely were of this breed. Unfortunately, conservatism has been hijacked by the Religious Right (at least in the USA). What are your thoughts on this?
Can you still be a CONSERVATIVE but still think Religion and Politics don't mix?

As bad as it seems, religion is good for Conservatism. Without it you get things like Caste systems (inability for upward social mobility for the underclass) or Nazi Germany (no tolerance or compassion for certain individuals whether it be based on race, gender, or mental dysfunction). Religion provides a moral compass for Conservatism.Comment
