2

My conservative view of the world I feel sometimes is under attack. Yes, I believe that something’s should hold true to their traditions. Organizations that have a history of customs and beliefs are losing their traditions that have been passed down over the years. My issue is why a small percentage of the American population forces their views on these traditional organizations. These traditions have been tested and prove to be timeless. But when conservatives (traditionalist) speak up and say no we are looked upon as not progressing, stuck in the past, or old-time. 

When will it stop?

The reason for my rant about this topic is we are headed down the wrong path. The progressive movement will gradually eliminate our long-standing American traditions. Moreover, as the progressive changes take place nothing will be left. As society will soon forget our time honored traditions and the progressive movement will change as often as the wind blows.
