I'm not sure what emphasis they place/d on Calvary and the Cross, or if they truly understood/understand what transpired there.
Felicity is right, you can't paint everyone with the same brush no matter what their label... Lib or Con.

No matter what convictions they adhere to, you can't lump them all together.
For every hard, harsh or critical person there is one who holds the same standards and is filled with love and compassion.

As I said previously, I don't know any one who will send you to hell for wearing a wedding ring while driving a Bently, so I can neither confirm nor deny the existance of such messed up folk.
