Your defense of absolutes has no suprises. Absolutism, ascribed status (as exemplified by the Bush dynasty and guaranteed by inherited wealth), and religious conformity are the bed-rock foundations of right-wing conservatism.

And it is obvious now that the Republican party is presently owned by the core constituency known as the fundamentalist Christian movement.

The only problem is the surety that the only thing that is absolute is that change will happen. Change is a constant process and Bible thumping will not stop it.

Conservatives are pissing in the wind, and it is blowing back in their faces. This would be fine and dandy if the rest of us didn't have to suffer for their hubris. Appointed Judges, destroyed social programs, destructive legislation---all will take many years to repair the damage inflicted by the Bush misadministration.
