Well, I got stuck on the first box...

Well, god = a higher power in this occasion I would believe, because if you answer yes it wants to know if you believe in more than one.

Now, just out of interest, what other definitions could you have applied here?? Because I thought the idea of a God is pretty well defined.....

And for those who care, apparently I am an existentialist. More likely somewhere between a nihilist and an existentialist.

I am a nihilist, which is nice to know. I always thought I was just an atheist.

It would be interesting to do one of these charts for politics. I saw something once which showed me as an extreme left anarchist, which also sounds about right. Thanks for posting, Craig.

Interesting. I get the feeling wikipedia is going to get a good number of word definition searches in the next couple of days.

When I saw this yesterday and how the arrows moved action in ways so typical of a Progressive Anagram I just knew magicians would love it :twisted:

That's the one. I am still an extreme left libertarian. And I still hate authority.

Isn't that what the rest is about?

Well, apparently I'm slightly libertarian, slightly right, but mostly very close to (0,0) on the graph. I'd have put myself a shade further right, but can't really argue.

The religious one makes me a polytheist, although I would more often consider myself a pantheist/panentheist, as far as any of that goes. I don't think I really fit into any of the options on the chart!

Liberal leftist, but not as left as Gandhi.

Nihilist apparently, although I think that is a little judgemental. Just because I do not believe in God does not mean I believe life has no value or purpose!

As for politics - A less libertarian Dali Lama.

I can honestly say that surprises me as I consider myself a little right of centre, rather than a little left.

I shall still be voting Tory unless there's a major policy swing.

I seem to be slightly less left than Ghandi.

The problem though, is that whether you are left or right doesn't really make any difference. The political parties don;t often follow their own rules anyway.
