Politics is downstream from culture, as Andrew Breitbart once said.

All religions are partly based on fear. Doesn't matter if it's orthodox Jews, orthodox Christians or orthodox Muslims or any other religion.

Now there is absolutely nothing wrong with being fearful. It might even be a valid approach to life in many ways.

However it does become a problem when it turns political. That's the moment when fear turns to hate.

This topic is about conservative politics. And my comment is on conservative politics. Not American Republicans, but conservative politics in general. The problem of hateful conservative politics is present everywhere in Europe and probably everywhere world wide regardless of religion. I find it quite disgusting that conservative politicians are abusing the religious fears to fuel their own hate.

All religions are also about peace, acceptance, love and respect. None of which are present in conservative politic.
