Post Questions

Answer these questions so we can get an idea of your opinions on certain topics? Alter questions to go with you country etc if needs be

Would you do meth if it was legalized?
never... im not into drugs.

Are you for or against abortion?
I'm for abortion all the way. Its a womans right to choose what happens to her body. I dont like the current state of abortion being abused as in to use it as a controceptive. I always would think twice if abortion was used to abort disabled babies.

Would our country (United States/United Kingdom) fall with a woman Prime Minister?
Already happened... Thatcher was evil in my opinion with her treatment of the working classes. For example the closing of the coal mines.

Do you believe in the death penalty?
Nope... a person whos commited a serious crime should be made to rot in jail and live with the guilt of what they had done. Too many innocent people risk being executed otherwise as over the centuries when the death penalty was legal.

Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already?
Nope. I know first hand due to my lil brother the effects cannabis can have on a person. Its not fun and its not clever. It can lead to serious mental illness and my lil brother has been showing signs of such illness after years of smoking it. Our government was right in puttin it back up to class B.

Do you believe in God?
YES... but i also believe there is a Goddess too. It makes perfect sense to me that we have a divine parentage just as we have parents here on Earth. Everything in Nature is a beautiful manifestation of God.
And what exactly do u lose by believing in a God??

Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized?
In England its classed as Civil Partnership... which i do not like. We should be entitled to Marriage just as much as heterosexuals. Love and marriage are sacred bonds/connections which every human being is entitled too.

Do you think immigration is wrong?
Yes and no. I think that the government needs to start controlling the borders a lot more to stop illegal immigrants coming in. I do think that people have a right to a better life and if it meant coming here from a war torn country or were at risk of torture etc then yes. I think also if they intend to come and work then yes also. I just think that our government is starting to forget its own people and focusing too much on pleasing the international community by showing itself as a welcoming country.
Our island is a small one and the government needs to control it better

A twelve year old girl has a baby...should she keep it?
if she was capable to and had the support of her family and others then why not... if she was perfectly capable of lying there for sex then she should be responsible enough to take the consquences of her actions.

Should the alcohol age be lowered to 16?
No... never... Binge drinking is a major problem among teenagers and it would only encourage more.
Alcohol is a killer and i dont understand why the government isnt doing more to tackle this issue

Assisted suicide is illegal...do you agree?
In the case of someone who is a vegetable or who is constantly in pain then maybe... but suicide is not good in my opinion.

Do you believe in the spanking of children?
a good slap did me no harm. Children get away with far too much and its the governments fault for letting them know what they can get away with. The recent troubles in the UK are down a lack of discipline in the home and its the governments fault for taking this away from parents. PArents are in a bad position nowadays.
Most kids need a good slap!

Would you burn your countrys flag for a million?
Yes!

A mother is declared innocent after murdering her 5 children in a temporary insanity case, do you agree?
It has to be proven... and if shes declared insane then she is innocent. But at the end of the day she'll have to live with the guilt of her action forever.

Are you afraid others will judge you from reading some of your answers?
Its my opinion... dont care if u agree with me or not... be nice to have a discussion with peeps on it tho

Answer these questions so we can get an idea of your opinions on certain topics? Alter questions to go with you country etc if needs be

Would you do meth if it was legalized?
No, I don't think it sounds very fun or pleasurable.

Are you for or against abortion?
For, the abortion of everyone. I'd be pretty pissed of some religious cunt was deciding this for me. Lucky where I live it is legal.

Would our country (United States/United Kingdom) fall with a woman Prime Minister?
What difference does it make? None.

Do you believe in the death penalty?
How can you not believe in it? Do I agree with it? Yes for some things. Some people should just be killed for the things they have done. Why should we pay to keep them alive? It's easier to just kill them, in a dream world.

Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already?
Yes, it's good pain relief and I have seen in the Netherlands that most people don't smoke it, even though you can buy it in a coffee shop.

Do you believe in God?
No way. I think it's a retarded concept thought up by men to control people and give them a reason to go about their meanlingless lives. Scare them or they will act like the feral animals they are. Explain the things they can't by saying god created. Arrogance created god. Religion is the biggest form of evil the world has ever seen.

Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized?
Yes! My gay friends should be allowed to get married like anyone else.

Do you think immigration is wrong?
No, though I wish my family hadn't done it.

A twelve year old girl has a baby...should she keep it? ... judging from all the teenage slags I saw walking around with babies in Ireland, I'd say no. They don't know how to care for a baby and they shouldn't be fucking when they are 12.

Should the alcohol age be lowered to 16?
No. Kids are annoying enough, let alone having them in the pub.

Assisted suicide is illegal...do you agree?
I want an assisted suicide when I am riddled with arthritis and other pains. People should be allowed to chose to die if they are in pain, and have it done "safely" instead of blowing their heads of or gassing themselves in the car.

Do you believe in the spanking of children?
I don't think it actually works, never did for me anyway. People shouldn't beat their children.

Would you burn your countrys flag for a million?
Yes.

A mother is declared innocent after murdering her 5 children in a temporary insanity case, do you agree?
I don't think insanity should be a reason to get away with killing anyone. It all depends on how bad the crime was whether they will get away with it anyway. Look at Martin Bryant, he is clearly fucked in the head yet is in jail for life.

Are you afraid others will judge you from reading some of your answers?
Nah.

lol no. meth is the stupidest drug ever.

Are you for or against abortion?
for

Would our country (New Zealand) fall with a woman Prime Minister?
no, we've had a female prime minister for like eight years now. in the beginning she was pretty good but she's been doing all this terrible shit lately like signing a free trade agreement with china, expanding the dairy & coal industries and weakening our ETS due to pressure from businesses which i consider fucking retarded so i definitely won't be voting for her this october.

edit: i got kind of carried away and missed the point of this question a bit lol. basically i think that the other party is a hundred million times worse than hers which is probably why her party got voted in. nz has always been quite progressive with stuff but it's nothing like america where everyone kicks up a huge fuss over gender. it's not like she got in because of a bunch of feminists or whatever. and i don't think the fact that she's a woman had anything to do with the bad decisions i mentioned above, she's practically a man anyway. in fact a LOT of people believe that she's a lesbian and that her husband is gay, and yet she got voted in twice. i am glad that people here look at politics - the whole POINT of elections - rather than irrelevant shit like gender and sexuality.

but anyway. this question is really quite retarded. people shouldn't make such a huge deal of gender, it's 2008 for fuck sake.

Do you believe in the death penalty?
i don't know? like on one hand i don't agree with taxpayers having to pay for their meals and shit (is that even how it works? i pay absolutely 0% attention to anything to do with prison) but on the other hand i think it's hypocritical to kill people when you're trying to teach them that killing is wrong. oh fuck it, i don't know. i am not making any sense here.

Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already?
i wish normal cigarettes were illegal. seriously. i am fucking sick of hearing about how bad smoking is. not to mention all the taxpayers' money being wasted on "anti-smoking" campaigns that everyone ignores anyway. if it's that bad, make it fucking illegal. or something. what the fuck do you even get out of cigarettes anyway? i reckon if you're going to smoke anything, it may as well be pot.

Do you believe in God?
lol! no.

Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized?
it is legal here. but i think it should be legal everywhere.

Do you think immigration is wrong?
no. that's a pretty silly question in my opinion.

A twelve year old girl has a baby...should she keep it?
ew. that is so fucked up. well if she wants it and is fit to raise it, sure.
obviously her parents will have a lot to answer for...but i mean it's bad enough that she got pregnant at age 12 in the first place, taking the baby away would be an unbearable trauma i think.

Should the alcohol age be lowered to 16?
hell no. it should be raised to 21 if anything. 99% of teenagers are fucking idiots. i know, i was one not too long ago.

Assisted suicide is illegal...do you agree?
no.

Do you believe in the spanking of children?
no. my mum hit me like once when i was a kid and i don't think it damaged me, but i was smacked daily by my first teacher at school when i was five and i really think it fucked me up a bit.

Would you burn your countrys flag for a million?
hahaha! hell yes.

A mother is declared innocent after murdering her 5 children in a temporary insanity case, do you agree?
it really, really, really depends on the circumstances.

Are you afraid others will judge you from reading some of your answers?
lol. if i cared i wouldn't have answered any of these questions.

Would you do meth if it was legalized?
No, cause I don't want to. I really can't see how the legal status of the drug would affect me anyway. I make my own decisions and ignore the law in that field.

Are you for or against abortion?
For, although I really think people who have multiple abortions should be educated about the difference between abortion as a last resort when things go wrong versus a first line contraceptive.

Would our country (UK) fall with a woman Prime Minister?
Nope, we had Mrs. T and the UK post-Mrs. T was a LOT better off in most fields than it was before. The idea that the sex/race/sexual orientation of a leader has any impact on their ability to rule is one I find laughable.

Do you believe in the death penalty?
Nope. Because the risk of innocent people getting killed is too high, plus it is rather hypocritical of the state.

Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already?
Nope, cause two of my friends have gone down with cannabis induced psychosis. Its really not as benign a drug as it looks on the tin.

Do you believe in God?
Definitely not.

Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized?[/size]
Yup.

Do you think immigration is wrong?
No, its a revitalising force for our economy- London would be nothing without its immigrants (plus my parents are immigrants and I was an immigrant in Paris as a child). Only field its slightly detrimental in is health, but that is a worthwhile price to pay for the benefits I feel.

A twelve year old girl has a baby...should she keep it?
Age shouldn't be an automatic barrier to raising a child. Depends on her maturity level. On the whole I think teenage mums need a lot more support (not financial) to break the poverty cycle.

Should the alcohol age be lowered to 16?
Nope, because most 16 year olds can get booze anyway, and if you lower it to 16, most 14 year olds will be easily able to buy it, but I don't believe in raising it either. Treating teenagers like retarded babies encourages them to act like it for longer. When I was in NYC, I noticed teenagers at the same age I was at the time (17) were much more immature than I was because they were treated as children rather than as almost-adults.

Assisted suicide is illegal...do you agree?
No. People should have the right to die with dignity when they chose. To have people vote in the House of Lords against that right makes me really really angry.

Do you believe in the spanking of children?
Yes, when you are really small you can't rationalise and smacking kids can save their lives when it comes to small kids doing stupid stuff. It shouldn't be the routine punishment but it should be the ultimate sanction. My parents spanked me and I think it was the right thing to do.

Would you burn your countrys flag for a million?
Hell yes, I'd burn it for £50. I like my country, but its only a fricking rectangle of material. Its not like your asking me to blow up the houses of parliament.

A mother is declared innocent after murdering her 5 children in a temporary insanity case, do you agree?
Depends on the case. Post-puerpal psychosis is a geniune condition, so I wouldn't be surprised if that was the reason behind it.

Are you afraid others will judge you from reading some of your answers?
Nope- I never care if people judge me.

Would you do meth if it was legalized?
No. I think there are some drugs it's pretty much impossible to take recreationally.

Are you for or against abortion?
Against, morally, after the first few weeks. But I think making it illegal would do more harm than good, so I believe in reducing the circumstances which lead to abortion. I wish the debate focused on life vs. the right to control your own body; which are both valuable things. The current OTT sexual morality vs. sexual liberalism that's attributed to the issue avoids the points imo.

Would our country (United States/United Kingdom) fall with a woman Prime Minister?
"Already happened... Thatcher was evil in my opinion with her treatment of the working classes."
Agreed, but I don't think it's because she was a woman, but because she was overcompensating and made herself very anti-woman (along with anti-working class and anti pretty much every minority). Hopefully next time around we will be 'ready' for it and there won't be any need for whoever she is to appeal to conservative elements in that way.

Do you believe in the death penalty?
I disagree with it for many reasons. The only time I am 'for' it is when I'm being over-emotional and scared/shocked; which is no basis for law. Society should take the moral high ground; and I think death is an escape for some of the worst criminals anyway. And apparently the DP costs more.

Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already?
Within reason, I think all drugs should be legalised; and the distribution made safer, etc.

Do you believe in God?
Yes, but I don't know what shape he/she/it/they take/s, and I accept the possibility that there is no God. I tend to view God in a vaguely Christian context, as that's what we grow up surrounded by in the West; but I believe that we can't possibly understand such a vast concept because we're limited by human senses and words, and prejudices. I know that all sounds very vague but whatever.

Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized?
Yes. The Civil Partnership thing was a real cop-out. Obviously it's good that same-sex couples have legal rights now, but it's not exactly equal!

Do you think immigration is wrong?
No, but I think that immigrants become scapegoats for employment practices which hurt British citizens and the immigrants themselves. Open-door policy for asylum seekers, I think states are social constructs and everyone deserves equal rights regardless of which side they were born on.

A twelve year old girl has a baby...should she keep it?
It should depend on the circumstances, the child(ren) should always be the first priority.

Should the alcohol age be lowered to 16?
I hate binge drinking. But I think a more liberal approach might help more than our current policy.

Assisted suicide is illegal...do you agree?
I believe that someone has the right to take their own life. BUT once it's been done, it can't be taken back; and legalisation could be open to abuse. And there is no painless way to be killed as far as I know. So I don't know how I feel about it tbh.

Do you believe in the spanking of children?
NO. There are other countries with a much better history of child protection than ours, that haven't turned into lawless societies! Britain has the worst ratings in Europe for happiness levels of children and for the relationship between the generations; and it isn't children who are responsible for that.

Would you burn your countrys flag for a million?
I don't believe in patriotism but I'd feel kind of bad about it. And wouldn't the people who said yes worry about death threats!? So I don't know. Actually probably, if it was private.

A mother is declared innocent after murdering her 5 children in a temporary insanity case, do you agree?
I don't know. How can they prove it's temporary?

Are you afraid others will judge you from reading some of your answers?
I come across a bit of a fence sitter in places but never mind.

Would you do meth if it was legalized?
About as doubtful as the legalization of meth.

Are you for or against abortion?
I’m pro-choice. I don’t think it’s fair that a woman should go through with the pregnancy when she doesn‘t want to. It is more often than not mostly due to the carelessness of the father that results in the pregnancy, so I don’t see why the mother should have to bear the responsibility. And of course she should have the option in the event of rape. I don’t agree with abortion being used as a contraceptive, though. I think a legislative eye should be kept on that.

Would our country (United States/United Kingdom) fall with a woman Prime Minister?
The capability to rule is independent of gender ofc. It depends on the individual, not the sex. Thatcher may have been a poor leader, as were male PMs (Heath and Wilson, anyone?) before her, but you can’t base your impression on one example. That’s just senseless. Besides, Thatcher wasn’t all bad. You have to admire the way she made a complete turnaround when the country was in economic crisis.

Oh, I just saw that you’re supposed to apply the questions to your own coutnry. Well, the same thing goes for the Irish Taoiseach. There’s no gender-prejudice in our government, and we haven’t had a male president since before 1990, so I think we’re prepared for the onslaught of a female Taoiseach

Do you believe in the death penalty?
I’m deffo against it. No matter how heinous the crime, the law should not dictate whether a person lives or dies. The logic of “eye for an eye” does not apply here. We have as little right to take away a person’s life as the murderer who committed the deed. Throw the fucker in jail, says I.

Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already?
I think that it should be legalized, but it should be treated somewhat on par with smoking. Marijuana is not for everyone, and it should be the individual’s decision whether or not to take the risk.

Do you believe in God?
I’m agnostic. We, as people, possess neither the knowledge nor the capacity to determine the existence of what is beyond our understanding. People who hold strong beliefs hold improvable standards for the intellectual limits of humankind.

Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized?
I def think that same-sex couples should be given the same benefits and rights as married couples, but they should call their union something other than marriage. I understand “marriage” to be the union of a man and woman. And ofc it’d be hypocritical of gay couples to seek a union where their church forbids it.

Do you think immigration is wrong?
It’s a free earth.

A twelve year old girl has a baby...should she keep it?
I don’t think she should keep it if she doesn’t have the means to support it or give it a happy life, but it’s her decision.

Should the alcohol age be lowered to 16?
I don’t think there should even be legal restrictions on drinking. It should be the responsibility of the parents to decide whether their kids should drink or not. You might tell me “Oh, do you expect us to sit back and watch 5-year olds drinking themselves to oblivion”, and this could be a problem at first. Notwithstanding, I think that eliminating the legal drinking age would result in a much healthier attitude to alcohol overall, from young and old. When people are exposed to alcohol in their youth, they learn to take it in their stride and be more sensible around it.

Assisted suicide is illegal...do you agree?
Where the party is capable of committing suicide without assistance, I think assisted suicide should be illegal. Otherwise, I dunno. At the end of the day, I think it’d make the most sense for it to be illegal in all cases. It’s not up to us anyone but the suicidal person to decide whether they should live or die, so in cases where they’re suffering but cannot communicate or whatever I guess that’s just tough.

Do you believe in the spanking of children?
No.

Would you burn your countrys flag for a million?
Lol sure. Even if I were patriotic, it’s just a flag for chrissake.

A mother is declared innocent after murdering her 5 children in a temporary insanity case, do you agree?
I don’t agree that she is innocent of murder. The circumstances might affect the punishment, but they do not change the fact that she murdered her 5 children. The sentence would depend on how insane she was, etc.

Are you afraid others will judge you from reading some of your answers?
Naw.

Answers define who we are in relative time. We can realize our evolution by tracking how we answer questions. Formulating a question takes more intelligence than answering one. Our ego self is defined by these answers; our spiritual Self is defined by our questions. Most people do not have the capacity to entertain unanswerable questions, therefore, the unknown often becomes non-existent to them.

We grow, hopefully, as we see ourselves from different perspectives; this is what I like about this thread--it helps us to compare ourselves(ego) to others we recognize and helps us to establish a stronger ego. We CAN evolve or transcend this egoic state by thinking and contemplating the answers.

I love to ask the tough questions; mostly of myself. I hope over the years that you caught on to me-- I hope you "GOT ME" a little bit. I wanted you to be introduced to the idea that you CAN think for yourselves; one does NOT need someone to provide the answers for you. Challenge your self(ego) to know your Self(Higher self) better.

Ask the tough questions.

Not to always define WHO you are, but to discover WHAT you are. The most valuable truths will come from within yourself--all based on where you are at, at the time. A journal is a great tool on your journey through life.

Why?

The ego does not know; can not know; because the ego will not allow the brain the freedom to ask the right questions.

Whatever God is-- She is there behind the ego ready for some tough questions when you are ready to handle the answers.

Now that you have defined your superior spiritual self as preferring to ask the tough questions rather than using some of your lesser intelligence to answer these 15 simple questions, please, for once, drop the dependency on YouTube to provide most of the answers for you---and take a stab at answering these questions. Otherwise leave this thread that you see mainly as a comparative ego thing at a point in relative time. Yes, we have all "Got You" more than a little bit. It's not about you trying to make yourself look superior, it's about you coming on to this thread to answer the simple questions. You can always start yet another of your own threads to bolster your own fragile ego; however, this thread is about answering the 15 simple questions. Don't worry, you won't be judged by inferior, less spiritual members.

Are you ready to handle your answers to these not so tough questions? Because our KR God is waiting behind your ego, and you are pissing her off with your fear of vulnerability in defining your obsession with transcending your ego by not answering the questions.
Drop the fear and don't give a second thought about your natureal reluctance to answer questions and take a survey from people who you may believe are inferior to you.

Think of it as interesting and thought provoking and not as a contest of comparing intelligences or egos with anything or anybody. Challenge your fearful ego to allow some valuable truths to come out of your loving heart by answering the questions. We 'get you', so we know you have some great thoughts for your answers. Please don't sit behind another YouTube link, but instead, answer the simple questions of the day from a simple honest CC standpoint. Hey, you could give some poetic answers by quoting your own alter ego, CC !!! He will give you, Sophia_, the strength and creativity to answer the questions. It's more interesting and honest than trying to look like the wise guru who is above answering the questions but not above preaching to us that it was you that introduced us to the concept of thinking for ourselves. It is US that is encouraging you to answer questions for yourself. I remember last year when I had the time to look at KR that you encouraged everybody to take the Myers-Briggs psychological personality test, by answering more questions than these 15. Many of us did it, took the time to play your Myers-Briggs game so that you could show us that you are a complex intorvert; and our ability to transcend our egos did not suffer in doing so. There you go, that is your own precedent to drop your reluctance to answer these questions. Now get to it, or go STFU, and leave us alone in this thread.

Why don't you think for yourself by answering the 15 simple questions ??? That way nobody will think you are taking advantage of this thread to prop up your own ego. Transcend that, your HOLY WISE SPIRITNESS, and free yourself from the self-locked chains of your spiritual ego. Give your self the freedom to answer the questions under the light of this thread.

I have to go to bed now, as it's late and I have to get up extra early tomorrow morn, but I will answer the questions tomorrow so I have more time to give more in-depth answers. I am not afraid to answer the questions. And the KR God, She does not care if you give very short answers to the questions.

Would you do meth if it was legalized?
no. it doesn't matter to me whether it's legal or not, it's horrible regardless, and i'm not going to do something just because the gov says it's ok.

Are you for or against abortion?
i'm not FOR them, really, but i don't think it should be my decision and in some cases i think they can be justified.

Would our country (United States/United Kingdom) fall with a woman Prime Minister?
australia- and no.

Do you believe in the death penalty?
no.

Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already?
noo, honestly. could you imagine people popping out from their breaks at work for a spliff? frustrating. but i'm not personally against it's use, i just think if it were legalised it would be too common for our own good.

Do you believe in God?
not the christian god. i always just say 'i don't NOT believe in god'.

Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized?
absolutely 100%. while, yeah, it is a christian institution i think gay couples and straight couples should be entitled to the same legal rights.

Do you think immigration is wrong?
not at all. why should it be? i'm all for diversity and it would make me proud to open up my country for people, especially those who need it for sanctuary.

A twelve year old girl has a baby...should she keep it?
honestly, no. there are also a lot of medical reasons why this is not a good idea. i think 12 is FAR too young. maybe if it were adopted by her parents, but i don't think a 12 yo could be a good mother, and it would be awful for her own life to have to commit to a child.

Should the alcohol age be lowered to 16?
no. not at all. many reasons.
in the us i think it should be lowered to 18, though.

Assisted suicide is illegal...do you agree?
no. but then, it depends on the circumstances.

Do you believe in the spanking of children?
yes. but not hard, or with anything other than a hand, and only once.
and also, only as a last resort.

Would you burn your country's flag for a million?
yes. less than that, even.

A mother is declared innocent after murdering her 5 children in a temporary insanity case, do you agree?
this is the hardest question so far... i don't think she should be declared innocent, and clearly she would remain a danger if she were to be freed. no.... i don't think i agree at all. not even insanity can justify murdering five children.


Are you afraid others will judge you from reading some of your answers?
i don't care. they can judge me if they like.

Would you do meth if it was legalized?
No. I don't want my teeth to fall out or to become one of those crazy meth heads who talk all scary like they're about to turn on you any minute.

Are you for or against abortion?
pro-choice

Would our country (United States/United Kingdom) fall with a woman Prime Minister?
It could fail with either gender.

Do you believe in the death penalty?
Not unless its one of those serial killers who like escapes from jail so they can kill more people. But that seems to only happen in movies.

Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already?
yes

Do you believe in God?
not so much.

Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized?
yes. Well, I'm already in Massachusetts anyway so that's already been legalized and the state didn't fall apart.

Do you think immigration is wrong?
No. If you are allowed into a country you have every right to move to wherever you want.

A twelve year old girl has a baby...should she keep it?
If she's actually going to take care of it otherwise she should find someone else who really wants one and understands what it means to raise a kid. I just doubt a 12 year old could take care of a baby. I still played with barbies sometimes when I was 12.

Should the alcohol age be lowered to 16?
It should be lowered to 18 at the very least. I hate not being able to go anywhere or do anything, and they should also get rid of the stupid curfews for people under 21. It's a violation of human rights to tell someone they can't enjoy themselves just because of when they were born.

Assisted suicide is illegal...do you agree?
Depends on the situation. If your depressed friend asks you to shoot them and you do it, then you're clearly in the wrong. But like if it's a situation where someone is dying and they have a choice between a inevitable painful death or a non-painful death that's different.

Do you believe in the spanking of children?
I don't know.

Would you burn your countrys flag for a million?
Yes. It's a piece of cloth. I'd do it for half a million or even $100,000.

A mother is declared innocent after murdering her 5 children in a temporary insanity case, do you agree?
TEMPORARY insanity? I don't see how that's possible. If she had like a long term mental illness, that would be different.

Are you afraid others will judge you from reading some of your answers?
No.

Would you do meth if it was legalized?
no. i don't really even like admitting this, but i've done it before. i have no interest in ever doing it again.

Are you for or against abortion?

pro-choice. children should be a choice, not a societal obligation.

Would our country (the US) fall with a woman president?

i think we need a female in the white house.

Do you believe in the death penalty?
no matter how much anger and rage i feel at various sorts of people, i don't think they ought to be executed like they are now. that said, the criminal justice system here could use some adjustments.

Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already?

i don't see why not.

Do you believe in God?

as in the abrahamic definitely male capitalized god? no.

Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized?

yes but i don't know that i'll see it any time soon.

Do you think immigration is wrong?
no. if i had the resources right now, i would.

A twelve year old girl has a baby...should she keep it?

i think the ideal situation would be for her to care for it with the assistance of her parents.

Should the alcohol age be lowered to 16?

no.

Assisted suicide is illegal...do you agree?
no. we don't get to choose when we're born; we should at least get the choice of when we die.

Do you believe in the spanking of children?

i don't feel i have any room to answer this. i don't want nor do i plan to have young children.

Would you burn your countrys flag for a million?
i'd do it for a lot less than that. our flag is ugly anyway.

A mother is declared innocent after murdering her 5 children in a temporary insanity case, do you agree?
well, assuming she was actually temporarily insane, yes. but that doesn't mean they need to just let her walk away. get her the help she needs.

Are you afraid others will judge you from reading some of your answers?

no. i don't think i've said anything that would change anyone's already-established opinion of me.
