Many of us atheists/agnostics often say that, while we share skepticism in common, we may be different in many other ways. Also, as rational people, I would hope we could do this exercise without "coming to blows" as it were. So here is a quiz to see how we sit politically. It's not ideal of course, but it may be good at getting a general idea of how varied we are (or are not) politically. Let's try not to actually discuss particular political ideas in this thread, as we all know where that can lead. I want this thread to simply be an experiment to see how different we really are. I'd also like to respectfully ask religious members to avoid posting results unless you state that you are religious when you post results, so it will be less confusing.

Political Spectrum Quiz - Your Political Label

(Mods, if this thread needs to be moved or closed, please do with it what you must)

My results:

You are a center-left social libertarian.
Left: 2.76, Libertarian: 5.26



Foreign Policy:
On the left side are pacifists and anti-war activists. On the right side are those who want a strong military that intervenes around the world. You scored: -7.53



Culture:

Where are you in the culture war? On the liberal side, or the conservative side? This scale may apply more to the US than other countries. You scored: -7.36

Just right click on the pic/s, select properties, copy the url (Location), then paste it here and surrounded it/them with image tags.

This site doesn't take html.

In my view, the most extreme libertarians are authoritarians. I'm off that chart. My political views are prioritized squarely around peaceful voluntary interactions between individuals. What people agree to individually, voluntarily, without coercion or threat of violence, is no one else's business, ever. Crimes must have an identifiable victim, or they are not "crimes", they are prohibitions. Some would call me an anarchist, but I believe violence is only acceptable in defense. For lack of a better label, "voluntaryist".
