You seem to be painting with a very broad brush, friend. Perhaps you don't know as much about conservatives as you think. Just because some conservatives hold antiquated views doesn't mean it's true of all (or even the majority) of conservatives.

I'm using the definition of "conservative", which Wikipedia describes as:

> political and social philosophy [that] promotes retaining traditional social institutions in the context of culture and civilization

Everything I said is consistent with the definition of conservative. If you think conservatives are pro-gay rights or pro-equality, you are actually defining the word differently than the rest of us, and we're having a pointless semantic argument.
