Since I fall out between Tony Benn & Mahatma Gandhi, there is no one who actually comes close to my views.

I was exactly the same spot as Gandhi. Not bad.

Looks like I'm closest to the His Holiness the Dali Lama. I could do worse.

Fun, but tastes better cum grano salis. Oddly enough, and similar to Ah-choo, I was placed a little left and down (libertarian) of Gandhi. I was hoping to be lumped together with Attila the Hun and Genghis the Khan, but apparently hero-worship does not equate to emulation. As for my propinquity to Sri MahatmaCoat, I am not, once the pushing becomes shoving, particularly non-violent, nor do I feel that any one ideology is necessarily better than others at all times. A more accurate reading of my sentiments could be achieved through recourse to specific theoretical scenarios. General questions elicit feel-good responses that may have nothing to do with how the agent would behave under stress.

Ghandi was a little further left then me, no surprise there. Otherwise almost on top.

Oddly, myself, the butcher amongst us is depicted as a Liberal/Lefty.
Anyone have their personal contact info? I have a few insights from the world of violence for them...

Y'all have regularly self administered these tests the almost 10 years I've known most of you, so you'll recognize their fundamental flaw is not one of ever asks, "Are you thoroughly wasted right now?"

Don't try to humble your way our of this one Em. Henceforth you shall be known as "The Butcher". Capitalized and with quotes compliments of Bigcat who is still in the vegan closet.

The fundamental flaw is that the questions do not accurately represent my views on the issues.

Here's my graphed position from almost one year ago. I can't be bothered to go through the questions again, toasted or sober.

Because we like things that confirm our beliefs about ourselves without actually challenging us. Duh.
