How traditional are your attitudes?

What are the foundations of your beliefs? Do you generally accept traditional ideas? Or do you believe in change? Or, further, do seek to go beyond good and evil?

This quiz will determine how much you consent to traditional ideas. First it will some basic questions about religion, then ethics, and finish with a series of political questions.

Did God speak a human language (e. g. Latin) when He created the world?
- Yes
- No
- God is dead
What's more important: the actual words used, or the meaning they convey?
- The words that are used
- The meaning they convey, but it's still important to use proper grammar
- The meaning they convey. It doesn't make sense to say a statement is true unless you know what it means
Someone writes something after being inspired by God. How should their words be interpreted?
- Literally. They mean exactly what they mean.
- Be careful with a strict literal interpretation, be aware of the reason they wrote and the context in which they wrote
- The person was either crazy or lying in order to gain power over the minds of idiots
What makes an action good or ethical?
- God says which actions good or evil according to his will, which is made known to us by His law. Everyone who disobeys God goes to Hell.
- An action is good if it gets us closer to going to Heaven with God.
- God is the origin of all goodness. By obeying his law, we grow closer to Him. The most fundamental principle in this law is to love our neighbor as ourselves.
- An action is good if it helps others, bad if it harms others.
- The goal of our actions should be the greatest good for the greatest number. An action is good if it promotes this, bad if it hinders it.
- "Good" is a social construct. It has no reality except for the reality we give it.
Should a person always keep their word and strictly honor their agreements?
- Yes, as long as they are not forced to directly violate the will of God
- In general, but one should be willing to sacrifice them if necessary for the greater good
- Agreements are nothing more than words. They carry no real coercive power, aside from the power we give them in the moment
Do we have an absolute right to our private property?
- Yes, property is sacred
- No, but we should generally try to preserve property rights
- Of course not! It's pure convention
Is patriotism a virtue?
- Yes, we should always preserve our country and its great culture
- Yes, but nationalism is an extreme and not a virtue
- Yes, and we should fight for our country, but not if it means doing something really bad
- Not unless your country is perfect
- No, good/ethical actions are best for every person, and have nothing to do with countries
- To hell with patriotism, nations, virtue, etc. They're all social constructs!
What are your political beliefs based on?
- God and His will. His Law must rule the world
- Our basic rights, especially the right to private property, as stated in the Constitution
- Idk, maybe my family...
- Human rights, social justice, and equality
- Peace, freedom from want, freedom from fear and oppression, and an end to suffering
- Perfect equality and an end to all oppression and lies
What is your stance on abortion?
- Pro-life; abortion and contraception are violations of the will of God and should be banned
- Pro-life; abortion should be banned in most or all cases, but we should not decide our political positions solely on this issue
- I don't feel comfortable identifying with either one
- Pro-choice, but I wouldn't be ok with my daughter or friend getting an abortion for any random reason
- Pro-choice, a woman has a right to her own body
- Pro-choice, neither abortion nor anything else is immoral
How comfortable are you with socialism?
- Socialism is from the devil. Our country has far too many socialist policies; just one or two more and we'll be as poor as Venezuela
- It is a great violation of private property rights, and kills the economy
- It's worse than capitalism could ever be. However, I do recognize the need for some government intervention in the economy
- Depends on how you define the word. Canada, Britain, and Norway are all pretty well off...
- It is a much more just system than we currently have, and benefits everyone.
- Capitalism and all its lies must be abolished as quickly as possible!
What do you think about immigration?
- Immigrants are destroying my country and culture. Ban all immigration!
- We need to change our current immigration law to make it harder to become a citizen. Also we need to crack down on illegal immigration
- Legal immigration is fine, but illegal immigrants are breaking the law and should be deported
- We should reform our current immigration law to make it more just for undocumented immigrants
- We need major change in our immigration laws so that everyone can be granted a path to citizenship
- Borders are arbitrary social constucts. Why not get rid of them?
Lastly, how traditional do you think you are?
- Extremely
- Very
- Somewhat
- Not much
