I would be more towards the middle if the test gave the fifth option of 'no opinion', but I went more left/liberal with the questions that I honestly don't care about.

I reject this test's results. I am not the liberal it claims I am. I definitely agree with Dwood that the questions are worded wrong, and thats all it takes to create biased results. The test leans left.

I think that the last few questions regarding homosexuality are irrelevant, because whichever side you are on does not depict prejudice. To claim that it does exposes the test's bias.

I'll go ahead and post it, although I think many of the questions were worded poorly and were open to interpretation. I think in reality I'm closer to the middle- at least, that's where I try to be.

Uh... huh.


A same sex couple in a stable, loving relationship, should not be excluded from the possibility of child adoption.
and

No one can feel naturally homosexual.

Actually are both beliefs of the Roman Catholic Church... it's trying to see if your beliefs, with regards to those two questions... align with popular Christianity.

Which is valid.

However, it sets you as authoritarian. You also only chose about 2 questions. And despite that, I know some "Catholics" that think it's okay to be Homosexual.

The other questions are loaded as well, leaning toward the left wing nutjob.
A liberal probably wrote many of the questions because I don't know a single conservative that would not have a problem with those corporation questions.

Secondly, the Church (IE: Not the religion, but the deacons/Pope(s)/Arch Bishops/Cardinals/etc. who govern it) is Authoritarian. (Popes is potentially plural depending if you count over the course of time)

You need to separate the politics of the organization from the politics of the congregation. There is a really big difference between the one and the other.

I don't believe that they are valid and here is why: These questions effect the outcome in one direction or the other.Lets assume that they push the outcome towards authoritarian for the sake of my explanation. Now, authoritarianism may be a common trait in catholics and christians, but not all authoritarians are catholic or christian. This voids the question's accuracy, because the atheist authoritarian who comes along and takes the test, and does not believe in these ideals, would have his answers skewed and leaned towards the other side.

What? A man types a thought out paragraph and you think he's upset about something? I was calmly disagreeing with phopojippo and explaining why, so he wouldn't think I am just slinging accusations without a reason.

Is this how you reply when someone disagrees with you or your ideals?

It seems to be common practice for people on this forum to insult those who disagree with them and win/are winning in an argument.

It's not just the bias, its the innaccuracy that I was pointing out. Your right about one thing though: It doesn't matter. The test doesn't really matter at all. Does anyone here really need a chart to know where they stand?

Why do liberals get the negative quadrant?

The first time I took this test maybe about a year ago I got -7.5 by -7.5, and I was like, "What the fuck? I'm not an anarchist." The test changed though, the graph is bigger for one thing.

It's interesting how we like to label and and make partisan our position, and then become angered when this test doesn't verify that. I for one am pretty far from the average of the Democratic Party, but they usually have my support.

It may be just me but I'm pretty sure that the questions were geared to make comparisons and contrasts to noted historical leaders rather than the widely varying bases of the parties where people obviously have different opinions.

ICEE
November 26th, 2008, 02:14 PM
Then it should be a "which historical leader are you most like?" quiz instead of a political compass test, shouldn't it?
