A Voice in the Wilderness In Defense of "Mere Conservatism"

Faith and The Robber

At a gas station in Pompano Beach, FL an armed gunman was talked out of committing a robbery by the station's manager, 20 year old Nayara Goncalves.  Ms. Goncalves is a Christian and shared her faith with the would-be assailant and eventually the perpetrator calmly left the store.

Don't believe me?  Here's the video to prove it:

It's not every day that reminding someone of the personal God of the universe will stop them from committing a crime...but on the days it does work, I sleep a little more soundly that night.

What is “Mere Conservatism”?

The basic ideas, ideals, and values that generally define and characterize the central tenets of what today might be termed "modern conservative thought."

We believe that a proper understanding of history, economics, and theology leads to certain conclusions. Many of these are the same conclusions our Founding Fathers arrived at in constructing a "more perfect union."

All ideas and opinions are welcome; not all are correct.
