20th-Sep-2008 12:40 am - Legalizing Death Matches*
pirates, global warming
 So, I really don't know a lot about politics. I mean, I know some, and I know where I stand on a few issues, but I haven't taken Government yet or any of that and I don't really pay the closest attention to the elections and all that, so I can't say I really know my stuff. But I know a little (like, an eensy weensy bit)! In some ways, it kinda fascinates me. It's kinda interesting, and it's important to me. And at the same time, it's sure a hellfire the most boring, uninteresting thing there ever has been! :P 

Lately, it's been bugging me a whole lot how people keep putting me in a box based on what the religious and political views of my parents are (aka, what I thought of the world in middle school when they first met me). They aren't allowing any room at all for the fact that hey, maybe I just might have, oh, y'know, learned to think for myself, as in, like, grown up, since 7th grade? And oh, hmm, just because I'm a Christian and when you asked if I liked Obama and I said no and you asked what my parents were voting I said Republican, does that really, truly mean that I myself am traditional conservative Christian who bursts into tears at the sight of a soldier, thinks all Mexicans need to be deported, and abhors gays? Srsly. And they pride themselves in being all open-minded and whatnot. 

But the more I thought about it, the more I realized, I really have no clue what I am. I mean, I really do agree with the Republican party on some issues, like abortion and a government for the people, by the people. But I think democratically in some ways, and even others I'm just chilling on the fence (or, more accurately, hiding under it in wild/mild confusion while the crossfire makes all things go BOOM!). 

So I decided to take this test. 

The Political Party Test... )
