Only a very bad theologian would confuse the certainty that follows revelation with the truths that are revealed. They are entirely different things.

But I won't deprive myself of singing opera as long as my voice follows.
How did we win the election in the year 2000? We talked about a humble foreign policy: No nation-building; don't police the world. That's conservative, it's Republican, it's pro-American - it follows the founding fathers. And, besides, it follows the Constitution.
