I have often been told that you should never discuss religion or politics in public, because it might start a fight.

I believe the reason those two subjects start fights so easily is because they are so important. Your own personal religious beliefs and political ideologies determine a great deal of who you are. Even if you have no particular belief, that determines much of your approach to life. Furthermore, the prevailing religious and political ideas of the country you live in and of the world as a whole are fundamental to determining the conditions of the country and the world as a whole.

I conclude that people with any real interest in the world or its future have to discuss religion and politics. Even if it starts a fight.

What Do Modern Conservatives Believe

This does not account for all conservative views but it is a good starter. It is important to understand that conservative and liberal are just labels and those label change over time. What was a Conservative or Liberal 200 years ago may be the opposite today and may have changed many times in between. Learn from history but judge based on now.
