Conservative and Traditional

Okay, i'm a little slow, freely admit it. it came to my attention while speaking with a friend of mine this morning there is a distinction to be made between "traditional" and "conservative." perhaps there is a political side to this distinction, i do not know. but in local churches there are people who hold to conservative views and yet, can let go of traditions. then there are others who cannot separate the two.

i know, labels are a mess. i don't like to use labels (can't tell from the previous paragraph, huh?). they serve more to exclude then include. i use it as a means of distinguishing--never wanting to exclude. no part of the spectrum has got it all. for example, it could be said that Warren and Hybels are indeed conservative. yet nobody would ever say they are traditional.

btw, why do people brake at green lights? how's that for random?
