..being a "conservative", in the sense that his actions, once pressed to take a stand, reveal a follower of principles that transcend the "prudent". Jesus was a radical in the best and dearest way, and His true followers do not readily endorse regimes either.

"Qui Tacet Consentire" (silence gives consent) -- my favorite exchange in the play/movie -- is a moment where the prosecutor's argument that More's refusal to affirm is denial, is layed waste. More thought that he could wiggle out of swearing an oath against the Vatican by saying nothing. Of course the English Court has already decided More's fate, but has no power over an uncomporomisingly transcendent and everlasting spirit/mind.
