Where do you put yourself on the political spectrum: I find Socialist and Communist to be labels that are too limiting. The closest thing I identify with is that of a Left-Wing Utopian.
Do you indentify yourself with a certain political grouping (socialist, neocon, etc): Socialist would be the closest. But I joke that I am to the left of the Left.
Do you indentify yourself with a certain political party: No party adequately represents my values. With the lack of political options in this country, I vote for who I believe will do the most to bring about the change I think we need. Which tends to be Democrats but I am very dissapointed in that party.
Religion: Soft-Atheist. Which means I do not believe there is a God as opposed to knowing there is no God. I am open to the idea that there may be a God but I seriously doubt it. Basically, because I can not prove his absence, I can not say with certainty that he does not exist.
Abortion: Legal in all situations.
War in Iraq: Leave now.
War in Afghanistan: Leave now.
Marijuana: Legalize it.
Firearms: Disarm not only society, but the police and military as well. Projectile throwing weapons have brought nothing but harm to civilization.
Gay Marriage: Allow it.
Gay adoption: Allow it.
Religion in schools: Don't allow it. Should be taught only as a philosphy.
Death penalty: Abolish it.
European Union: Regionalism is bad. The whole world should be united under one uber-government.
