Looks like there is some stuff we just have to agree to disagree on. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/DOVE.gif" alt="" />

The image didn't work out - I was down in the bottom left-hand quarter. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> But then, you already knew that...

I had to click on the printable version of the graph and then scan it. If you don't have a scan you can still tell your scores. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I didn't get the scan, but tonight's score is:

Your political compass

Economic Left/Right: -4.88

Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.05

I've taken this on other occasions and scored closer to the center. It's like taking depression or mania inventories for me -- a lot depends on my current mood and how I interpret the question or what comes to mind when reading the question. Many of those questions have multiple interpretations and qualifying factors which are not specified. However generally speaking I'm in the lower left corner on the chart. It's just a matter of how deeply so.

Anyway since I'm right next door to the Dalai Lama, a :<img src='http://clubadventist.com/forums/uploads/default_wee.gif' alt='wee'>: bit closer to center than he, I feel fine about my score. It is well known that I am neither a fan of authoritarianism nor a cheerleader for corporations.

Sorry 'bout the size of the image: I did a screen capture, but I can't seem to zoom it any smaller without making it illegible. Probably not too many surprises there for anyone...

Economic Left/Right: -2.88

Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.13

I'm somewhere in that bottom left square.

But a few of the questions should have had other options.

Seriously. Like "I could care less about this issue" or "well, duh", esp "It's natural for children to keep some secrets from their parents."

Some people are naturally unlucky.???

Astrology accurately explains many things.???

I never knew how my opinions on these crucial matters pushed me to the right or left. Learn something every day, I guess.

It was fun, though!

Rosie, yeah that was pretty much my reaction as well. I didn't feel those things belonged there myself. Didn't Nancy Reagan consult astrologers? Astrology is hardly, therefore, automatically a leftist or rightist thing, just as an example.

I took this test a couple of times....

I first came out 2, -2

Then came out -4, -2

I then reconcidered all the previous answers 0, 5

And, by redefining many words, and my point of view, I recieved differing placements. Which just goes to show, it don't mean a thing....that is, IMHO! laugh.gif
