cultural conservatism


God 
     I would think that most Judeo-Christians would have this on their list. But some are luke-warm in their faith and do not subscribe to all the moral points of their faith. I chose God as my moral compass.

Family 
      This includes all of those family members as well as those very close to me.  

Country
      I have always remained a patriot to the United States. Even when the political winds change I hold on to my conservative beliefs and work at changing or at least giving my opinion to those who disagree.

US Military
      This includes law enforcement and all those who serve and protect.

The Bill of Rights
