As a semi-religious person I can agree about the points Oos raises here. It is hard to place religious people on the scale anywhere and I do agree that religious people's main concern is not spreading their religion as much nowadays. And I do agree that religious people are not inherently not progressive (so many negatives! it's the Irish coming out in me) although I do think that Pikapi is simply musing on things and typing them exactly as they come into his mind, I don't think he meant any offence but was more of trying to say that religious people (mainly referring to Christianity here I believe) tend to want a society built around their teachings (understandable) which many do view nowadays as conservative although to be honest if wanting people to commit to marriages and not be adulterous, be honest and peaceful rather than violent and to place value on the family unit is conservative well what can I say, I'm in that boat.
