In real life however , many people seem to be letting other principals override their conservative beliefs.
Exactly. I wish I remembered the political continuum better, but I THINK regimes like totalitarianism and such are on the left because of their total power and censorship. Fuck, I've probably got this backwards. But anyway, if you think about the basic ideology of conservatives, censorship should be on their list of things to rid of. And right now they actually are somewhat fighting it by allowing children to pray in schools. But at the EXACT same time, they're fighting porn. Total hypocrisy, only being fueled by religious constituents.
