I scored;

Economic Left/Right: 2.88

Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -0.51

Looks like I'm political centrist leaning toward libertarian.

How about you?

Visually, right about the Dali Lama and Gandi on their map. Tough call on some of the questions, though - they need an "it depends" option.

That's around Nelson Mandela's position. Very interesting test!

Namaste all


interesting take on the "belief-o-matic" religon tester

Economic Left/Right: -3.75
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.08

looks fairly close to H.H. the 14th Dalai Lama and Nelson Mandela

 

[rdwillia]

Econimic Left/Right: -4.00

Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -6.82

Looks like I'm right in line with the Dalai Lama and pretty close to Gandhi.

Economic Left/Right: 0.38
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 1.08 interesting. Gerhard Schroder in Germany.

Economic left/right; -6.38

Closest match Ghandi but even more libertarian......my oh my I must be a hapless romantic.

Economic Left/Right: 0.50
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.46

No politicians near me. That's a good thing, IMHO.

you know...


after taking this test... i've had to rethink some of my conclusions regarding my political views and so forth.

i used to think that i was a right-leaning conservative... as it turns out, i'm a leftist liberal!!!!!

goodness, what a paradigm shift!

I am southwest of Gandhi, which does not surprise me because I am a Green who leans towards socialism.

I am afraid to inform some of you that while this test is a very good test, it is a little but bias liberal. It is still one of the best political quizes I have tooken, but I suggest that some of you retake this quiz and think more carefully on what the question is trying to say (I suggest Vajradhara do this ).

The first time I took the quiz I came out as a centrist leaning toward the left (which suprised me) but after taking it a few more times it came out to what I really am (centrsit leaning toward the right ).

 

[Vajradhara]

actaully, i really couldn't answer many of the questions honestly since they were couched in rather discrete terms of agreement or disagreement.


some of the questions used terms like "always" which i have to disagree with, even if i agree with the general idea.

eh.. i am sure that it will make for interesting dinner conversation

Good poll!

Oh, better watch out for me. I lean to the right. I might be one of those crazed, radical right wing potential terrorists those crazed folks at the Dept of Homeland Security keep going on about!

{Are they going to terrorize me?}

 

[Pathless]

I think I took this before, but I don't see my results, and results may have changed. I think some of the questions have been updated.

I veer to the left, and down. Surprise, surprise.

Economic Left/Right: -8.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -9.28

Have times changed that much? Seems like just last president all the buzz was about the left-wing radicals undermining God and Country. The wind blows strong in these parts, I guess, but I'm still waiting for the hard rain to fall.

Uh-oh. I just took the test again, and I'm even more right wing radical than I was when I last took this test:
Economic Left/Right: 0.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.62

{I wonder if my quoting the Constitution more often has anything to do with it?}

{I wonder if my quoting the Constitution more often has anything to do with it?}

Probably. But you're more centrist than right-wing, even as a libertarian.

I have taken this test 3 times now and the score is always the same: The Dalai Lama.

Economic Left/Right: -6.62
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.54


The older I grow, the more left I go.
