Notes

1. We focused on social-cultural conservatism rather than economic conservatism, given that the former is more clearly related to prejudice (Jost et al., 2003; Van Hiel et al., 2010).

​2. Although Jackman (1973) has reasoned that mentally sophisticated people might be better able to avoid appearing prejudiced, research does not support this position (e.g., Ostapczuk, Musch, & Moshagen, 2009; Wagner & Zick, 1995). Moreover, this supposition hinges on the unsupported assumption that understanding and complying with contemporary social norms against prejudice when responding to straightforward questions about racial preferences requires elaborate cognitive skills of the sort that differentiate people with lower mental abilities from people with higher mental abilities. This alternative explanation seems unlikely, particularly in samples of university students (e.g., Keiller, 2010).

The simple answer is that Christians are to obey human law except where that human law violates God's Law. Our supreme duty is to obey God. Since God tells us to also obey human laws, we should. But, when they come in conflict, we are to "obey God rather than men"
And who wrote God's laws for Her, and where are they accurately portrayed?
Look a$$. I was responding to another post. Sorry I didn't use the qoute function for you. I don't care if you're believer or not.

No idea on this one.

Typed "Nebraska Black Pants" (to see if NU had ever worn black pants) into a google search, and this one of the images that came up...
