Conservative Theologically, but Liberal Politically?

Conservatism
Liberalism
Political Philosophy

“In Europe, ‘liberal’…means free market economics and liberty in general. Which is why the ‘Liberal Party’ in Australia is actually what Americans would describe as the conservative party. Whereas in the United States, ‘liberal’ has come to mean progressivism, openness to change of every sort, and left-leaning ideologies. Including, ironically, support for strong central governments and opposition to free market capitalism.” - Veith
