origin of conservative and liberal

I have often wondered why it is that Conservatives are called the "right" and Liberals are called the "left."
By chance I stumbled upon this verse in the Bible:
" The heart of the wise inclines to the right,
But the heart of the fool to the left ."
Ecclesiastes 10:2 (NIV) Thus sayeth the Lord. Amen.
Can't get any simpler than that.
