What I love about conservatives...
1. Their passion for what they believe to be true.
2. Their courage for speaking out in spite of rejection and possible ridicule from others.
3. Their dedication to God and what they believe to be true about him.
4. Their concern for the spiritual welfare of people.
5. Their tenacity that makes me keep thinking and sharpening my position.

Re: What I love about conservatives...
Nice observations. I agree with them.
But I am going to make a prediction here... This thread won't last long... UNLESS it turns from "What I love about conservatives" to "What I DON'T like about conservatives."

Yep, it already happened. And of course with the usual disclaimers. Can't have a nice list of qualities because that would make some that aren't conservative really have to look at their attitudes.

The same can be said for moderates, as well as Liberals.
Get over it and stop letting them make you feel less or more unworthy than God says you are.

Liberals and mods rock too, and for the same reasons.

Thank you for these encouraging and affirming words, Sister.
It's high time people stopped feeling like they need to say anything kind about conservatives.

Amos is an astute member of the Sarcastic Society.
You didn't catch what he was REALLY saying. 
May I suggest this online tutorial: How to Regcognize Irony.
