Political: I have no idea... YET. I somewhat opposed to eye-candy propaganda: Where people vote for the most 'popular', 'attractive', whatever superficial traits instead of the most likely creditable. I might be leaning to anarchism.

Philosophical: Cultural-independence; because "everything is weird, and there is no true normal". Yet I study the opposite to understand more in between. A "Free-spirit". I would like to know more about this part.

Religion: It's not that I DON'T believe, I just CAN'T... But I don't want to 'join' any religion either ways. I might be some unaligned agnostic who opposes from religious/anti-religious extremists... I do favor spiritual and moral teachings as I see it fit than some mindless worship. I respect any beliefs as long as they're not flaunting it or forcing me to believe at it.


I couldn't specifically define my own views. :lol: Ahahahaha.

I changed my mind, the following better represents my views:

Political/Ethical/Philosophical
I'm an advocate of Maxarchist kleptocracy, following the Gumpian “Box of Chocolates” school of economics; discordian pedagogy; sporadic agrarian absenteeism with a penchant for praedial larceny; alternate lawmaking based on a tombola of moral affectation, hysteria or nimbyism; sesquipedalian judaical process emphasising grandiloquent dissuasion; collective individualism.

Religion
Puritanical Deist hermit

A realist! I can respect that.

I thought free will was like antimatter to predestinarian Calvinism.

It is. To be fair I am more of a free will baptist though I do see some merit in Calvinism.

Political- *Spins wheel* Hmm, who's the least corrupt today? Not far right, but not far left either. I think perhaps central left? Rather new to this politics thing. No ideology is without some kind of flaw.

Philosophical- I believe that life is inherently meaningless. That it is up to us if we want to assign it a meaning. Much like how products have no worth until we give them a price.

Often we base such things on how common or rare they are, and their perceived quality, or simply just how much everyone else is charging for that item/what people are willing to pay.

Why is it important for life to have meaning anyway? Isn't simply existing enough? Guess this makes me a Nihilist. I don't think there is one singular meaning, there might be one that's the most popular, similar to how there will be a price for a certain item that most people are willing to pay. A status quo. But someone could just as easily offer another price and not inherently be wrong about its worth. Especially if the seller alters the price based on the offer.

In other words, life is what you make it.

Religion: I'm an atheist. Not spiritual either. I believe that when you die, that's it.

Political views: Pro-life, libertarian (with some conservative beliefs), support Israel, anti-establishment, pro-privacy, Support some limits on legal immigration and anti-illegal immigration

Philosophy: Pro-individualism, anti-nihilism, skepticism, anti-purity (disagree with being virgin at marriage)

Religion: I don't think about a label, I have grown up with Roman Catholicism and couldn't "obey" religion or God, no matter how right or what evidence looks like.

Political: none of your business, other than if it isn’t moral or ethical, it should be illegal.

Religious: Lutheran with very strong Anabaptist overtones (considering where I currently live and grew up, you can’t escape “the plain folks (read Amish and Mennonite)”

Philosophy: “If it feels good, and it’s easy, you’re doing it wrong!”

Political: fairly conservative. I don't like to change or fix things unless I'm certain they actually need changing or are truly broken.

Philosophical: not sure if there's a name for this, but I essentially operate under the assumption that life has some intrinsic meaning, truth, and purpose, even if human beings can't always agree on the particulars of these abstractions. Humans need some stability and don't thrive in utter chaos. I eschew post-modernism, especially.

Religion: confessional Lutheran. I attend a Missouri Synod church. I do admit there's difficulty with the paradox of monergistic salvation and synergistic damnation. But I still think conservative Lutheranism comes the closest to how I think the Bible describes God and Jesus, and how Christians should proceed with their lives. (My husband is not theistic, and I wasn't at the time when I met him, either, but I came back to the faith in 2005--long story. He has learned that theism can be practiced genuinely without harming others and has no problem with my practice of faith. Given that most people are theistic to some degree, it would serve other non-theists well to respect and tolerate faith in and of itself. Those who stress tolerance as a virtue should practice it, after all.)
