This is just a question, so drop that flame thrower!
The conservatives out there claim that they want government
out of people's lives (the Libertarians are another matter).
But, it would appear that the legislation that many of them
advocate would have the government control our lives more than
ever.  A few examples I've seen are:
1.  creationism and prayer in public schools
2.  abortion legally defined as murder
3.  descrimination against homosexuals
4.  21 year old drinking age and vigorous drug enforcement

I could go on but I think this shows what I am talking about.
So, could someone out there (preferably semi-rational) explain
to me this seemingly contradictory philosophy?  And can they
do it without using the "man is evil and that makes it necessary"
argument?  As Milo the Magnificent would say "FACTS!  I WANT FACTS!
NUMBERS!  DATA!  INPUT!  COMPUTE!"  and on, and on, and on.................
