Ideological spectrum/party affiliation, where do u stand?

[Two Thumbs]

Still lack a term....

You don't need one.

you be you, I'll be me, and they can be them.

Giving it a name and gathering people that think alike, got us the 2 party system

Gotta be part of a group man.... gitta lump you in there somewhere.

You can put me in this group.

The group of people that dislike people in groups.

We may agree on LOTS of things, that doesn't mean we need a club.

Fiscal conservative liberal humanitarian with a touch of Libertarian thrown in.

You are definitely NOT on the right.

I am proud to state that I am NOT on the right, either.

I believe in the right of ALL citizens to;
smoke pot
smoke tobacco
drink alcohol
own guns
have sex outside of marriage
get divorced
believe in god
not believe in god
participate in prostitution


i support the death penalty for SOME murderers; serial killers, charles manson, eric rudolph

i think it is time to limit immigration to ONLY educated or skilled LEGAL immigrants

i believe all citizens who QUALIFY PHYSICALLY have a right to join the military

i believe in equal opportunities and rights for men, women, minorities, gays

i believe America is a secular nation and our laws should be based on logic and reason, NOT the bible

I oppose ALL MANDATORY insurance (health, vehicle...)

i believe it is time to tax churches and religions

i oppose tax breaks for families.

i oppose welfare for life but support a short term WORKFARE program designed to
a. keep people working while they receive government subsidies
b. educate/train people for employment
c. help them find employment

i support a womans' right to choose

i support a fair/single tax rate for all working citizens

i oppose government waste and politicians receiving way too much compensation

There's a lot of ways to go so it's hard for me to pick a party or ideal as a catch all.
I've taken a number of those online test, just for fun, and I end up with the Reform Party, or a right of center, far north libertarian. None of it made any sense.

Fiscally conservative
Constitutionally conservative
Family conservative/Constitution
Religion, keep it out of politics, no one was ever scared by seeing another person pray in school, It's Merry Christmas, not Happy Holidays. It's freedom of religion, not from religion
Socially moderate, I just don't care what you do in your house as long as everyone in the house is old enough to consent.

I'm sure there's more. Ask if you want specifics.

"It's freedom of religion, not from religion"

so you think you have the right to FORCE people to believe in god?


how would you punish atheists?
death?

 

[ElephantMcDonk]

Can anyone post a good link to a political assessment quiz? I know where I stand, but it would be interesting to see from a good test.

I'm fiscally conservative
Socially Liberal
Foreign Policy, what's the word I'm looking for, libertarian? My opinion, we should not have a military as big as the next 25 biggest combined. I'm not quite as extreme as Dennis Kucinich or Ron Paul, but to the left of Obama even in that regard.

ah yes that limited viewpoint. This or that no shades of gray.

 

[Mr.Fitnah]

I'm curious to see, I aint seen a thread like this yet.

I know I'm on the right, and obviously belong in the GOP, but I struggle to come up with the proper designation for my ideological beliefs.

I'm pretty much half neo-conservative, half Libertarian.

???

It may be because the left right of the parliament doesnt make sense ,
Try the founders spectrum

What an incredibly stupid thing to accuse me of.

Where did I even imply "force peple to believe in god?" First; Which one? Then Why.
There's at least 3 gods with major followings. Then there's the tree huggers, American Indains, Hindus, buddist, taoist, etc, etc.

Like I said; It's freedom OF religion, not FROM religion.

No one has ever been hurt seeing someone else pray.

every citizen has a right to NOT believe in god, gods or religion

consequently, freedom of religion INCLUDES freedom from.

and, as you admit, you can NOT stop them or punish them for it

Got a news flash for my atheist friends.. it too, is a system of beliefs.

God of christians
god of jews [yahweh?]
gog ov muslims [allah]

Sure, some of them claim it's the same god, but I know people from many faiths and I can tell you they are not.

krist, baptist and catholics worship a different god.

You're not understanding what I'm saying, or trying to get a rise outta me. doesn't matter, I'll try again.

If your in school, court, etc, and you wanna pray to whatever, please be my guest, I have not right, and neither does the government to stop you. If your loud and annoying, I can ask you to be quiet, and you can tell me to jump in a lake, and go back to being loud.

Which means you have the freedom OF religion. If I want to be free 'from' religion I need to avoid public places and people at all times, b/c I might sneeze and someone near by might sat "God bless you". The horror of it all.

They don't know, or at least aren't sure.
