Preach Pulsey. Exactly the point he seems to fail to understand. I don't see a single person criticizing someone for being (for example) 96% with Bernie Sanders. The hypocrisy is too much.

This quiz is obviously biased also because the questions are made in such a way that even if you have right-wing opinion it put you in middle or left.(unless you choose pro multinational corporations answers.) Right wing is not only about big corporations...


sure i agree the quiz is biased, but what else is the right wing about that doesnt fall into the authoritarian/libertarian spectrum?

My results: http://www.isidewith.com/elections/2016-presidential/1488805144:801556211

im 91% with bernie sanders. do i think there's anything wrong with that? no. do i think there's anything wrong with being 95% with trump? no. I think your ideas are stupid but that doesnt make you an idiot necessarily. we have different beliefs, and i dont agree with yours, why should i judge you as a person based on that? now, being 100% with trump, carson, sanders, clinton, or anybody is just scary. nobody should 100% agree with any of them. unless you are the candidate. in which case have at it.

125ch if i recall correctly joseph built silos to store the grain n not pyramids. Read the bible or read a loyal interpretation site before you think you can call it out. I personally went to Sunday school, and they didn't bribe us into hating abortion or believing women are second class. They instilled good moral values. Not crazy conspiracies. In fact, they'd tell biblical stories alongside stories that had happened to real people.

That said, i got

first of all: he said nothing about what the bible actually teaches. he just said what ben carson believes, and i cant judge the accuracy of that statement. secondly: absolutely, sunday school is not necessarily an indoctrination session. there are many sunday schools which don't attempt to force beliefs onto kids. the sunday school i went to certainly didnt do that. however, there are some in which kids are taught ridiculous things. i saw this firsthand, when i went to a friend's sunday school (christian, don't remember denomination) and was told that Jesus would only love us if we supported pro-life politicians, and that making money and coming to church were the two things that god wanted us to do the most. so there are some weird places out there.

@Hai Guise - I'm an anti-multinational corporation conservative. I'm a Jeffersonian Paleoconservative who believes in protective tariffs, low rates of legal immigration, isolationism, agrarianism, and state's rights. The way the GOP acts, and certainly among the establishment, they disagree with all of the points I just mentioned. I am still a conservative, but according to this quiz/survey I am a moderate which is just simply false. The only reason I was grouped at the center is because these questions are biased.


@genghis - all religions have sects and schools that are wayward and don't necessarily preach and teach exactly and strictly to the original interpretation of their scriptures. If churches are "indoctrinating" kids then its only because they see their way of life being threatened at every turn by progressives who shove every unnatural law in their face. If we are debating indoctrination we should be discussing public schools too.

Genghis you need to read my statement again, because you clearly didn't get it the first time. I was refering to Carson's silly beliefs:

edit: and here he is talking about the big bang theory. And if you happen to have some basic scientific backround, you'll be able to realise how little Ben Carson understand about it. I cannot understand how that guy is a surgeon, it beats me.

What your country: Spain, what else.

What party is ruling it: PP, that is Popular Party (centre-right or right).

what's your opinion on them: Well, they did fairly well to get Spain out of the financial crisis, although its social ideas are not the best, and well, its corruption stinks.

What party did you vote for/will you: Can't vote because I'm 16, but if I could I would probably vote C's (Ciudadanos), that is a center, liberal new party trying to enhance the system and remove corrupts.

What's the best/worst party in country and or most dangerous: The best party, of course, is the one I want to vote, for obvious reasons. The worst one would either be PSOE (Socialists, they brought us into the financial crisis, corrupts also, now they have no idea where are going to) or CDC (Catalan right-wing nacionalists, now also separatist, trying to hide their corruption under separatist flags... and yet they blame us for their debts). The most dangerous would be Podemos, a far-left new party made by people wanting everything to change, probably more then needed.

Catalonia, Flanders, Scotland, Transnistria, Donetsk and Luhansk, Kosovo, etc should all receive referendums on independence. The only reason they've been placed within their native countries is because of WWII and Cold War map divisions.


Catalonia has been in Spain since the country creation more than 500 years ago. Scotland has been British for more than 300 years. WWII had no effect over them. And I agree we should maybe change laws to make them feel better, but I won't support independence unless a majority in Spain agrees, it doesn't only affect the region but also us.

@125ch - how does his beliefs on the creation of the universe affect his ability to be a surgeon? I want a very specific answer and link all the points how or why his non-belief in the big bang makes him unfit to be a surgeon? Moreover do you think the UN/Federal Government/Medical Universities/Hospitals should revoke his ability to be a surgeon because he believes in creationism?


Think carefully about this...if you respond yes you are a fascist and an apologist for totalitarianism.

Well since you invented all of the accusations you are throwing at me (you know people can read my post on the same page right?), and then you go on to menacing me of calling me a fashist if i happen do give the wrong answer according to your deluded mind, so the only logical response to all of this is to tell you to fuck off.

Sadly, there's a growing faction of people who think that the Big Bang and Evolution are the end all be all of science, and if you don't subscribe to one or both of those than you're a total idiot and everything else you believe is invalid.

But in reality, believing in the Big Bang is not a requirement for being a good surgeon/doctor. It's also not a requirement for being an effective political leader despite what some seem to think .

@pablo - the question is whether these very autonomous states have the right to secede. Note that I did not say that they should secede, only that they should be given their legitimate right to exercise their freedom of self-determination by holding a referendum on independence from their current countries. Also the time of history argument that they've been apart of these countries for X-number of years is fallacious. The basis for any right to secede should be based in the fact if a country is made up of a union of various political entities that differ in their language, majority religion, culture, and ethnicity. (**Note that I used the word "union". This is key. A union is a formal agreement made by members or entities to a contract. Said member has a right to terminate this contract if they feel it is not working in their best interests. At which point both sides would renegotiate or agree to go their separate ways**). Catalonia has significant regional differences from the rest of Spain and in fact it existed on its own previously as the Crown of Aragon. Catalunia has a different dialectic language, tends to contribute more to the economy, and if I am correct is more heavily Roman Catholic. I only argue that these places have the right to secede and I cannot speak to whether they should or should not stay, as that is way above my own political-historical knowledge.

@125ch - so I guess your answer is yes he shouldn't be allowed to be a surgeon. I love how these liberals work. If they don't like your question they don't answer it and instead call you "deluded" and tell you to get out. I didn't call you a fascist. I said if you were to answer in one way it would give evidence to the fact you are a fascist. Those are two different things. It would be the same if I asked someone if all land should belong in the hands of the federal government? If someone said yes I think we would all agree that that person is a communist. Note I am not pre-determining that that person is a communist.
