Religious-Political Demographics

[Ariovistus Maximus]

EDIT: Until the poll is properly edited we will change the criteria a bit:

Change "conservative" to "capitalist."

Change "liberal" to "socialist."

Suggestions are welcome.

Hi all! No debate here; I'm just curious about the religious-political affilliations of the average TWC member.

I'm also curious to see if there is a pattern or connection between religious and political leanings.

Thanks!

I'm an atheist and I'd say I'm a social libertarian politically.

[Barry Goldwater]

Methodist Christian, paleoconservative.

Ah, but you didn't vote, my friend! Please do so; I've always wondered about the demographics on forums like this. Maybe I'll do an age and gender one sometime, unless there already is one.

[Ardruire Iacób]

A theist and liberal.

[Arch-hereticK]

I'm a jerk.

Your Poll is way too US-biased.


Which is kind of a big problem as the US political range is extremely narrow and the rather strange nomenclature they use (what's called Liberals in the US is completely different from the rest of the world for example.)

Sorry. What terms should I use.

Being American, I simply don't know how a European would prefer the poll.

Suggestions are welcome!

Maybe capitalist/socialist??? I'll try that!

[Ariovistus Maximus]

Erg. How do I edit poll options???

Too many possibilities for a poll.

Libertarian, Liberal (as in the political theory of), conservatism, social-democrats, socialists, communists and anarchists would already be a good start

Capitalist/socialist is again too constricting in my opinion as for example most Europeans are in favor of capitalism with social restrictions

[Ariovistus Maximus]

Yeah, it is a bit broad. OK, a lot broad. Fine, a chasmic void.

I'm just trying to get a very general idea of TWC demographics; certainly not going to construct political theory or analysis with the results.

Just a neat little reference.

Thanks guys!

Oh, and truly I tried to use the best terms I could come up with to try to fit everybody in and still not have billions of choices.

No category really fits a atheist libertarian, so I went with conservative atheist.

The other problem we will have is the US view of the term liberal vrs the European.

and canadian.

i dont think the actual liberal party is very liberal. though i might be wrong.

[Shi Huangdi]

Conservative Theist. I belong to the political Far Right; that is, I agree with people like Ronald Reagan, Margaret Thatcher, Winston Churchill, and Rush Limbaugh. I am a very conservative Christian (which means nothing more and nothing less than that I believe in the God of the Bible).

[MaximiIian]

(Poly)theist. Bizarre leftist (socialist, monarchist, socially liberal).

[Dayman]

I'm a libertarian atheist. Economically conservative and socially liberal. Since I doubt your poll's use of "liberal" means classic liberalism - what I espouse, I picked politically moderate.

[Icefrisco]

I'm a Jewish liberal (surprise!)

[Dayman]

A Jew? With a Mel Brooks signature? Get out of here.

[Fiyenyaa]

Change "liberal" to "socialist."

Those two are pretty different things, to be honest.

Anyways, I'm an atheist who's socially liberal and economically left-wing.
