[01] Do you have the guts to answer these questions and re-post as The Controversial Survey? No, obviously. [02] Would you do meth if it was legalized? No. [03] Abortion: for or against it? Safe, legal, affordable, available, free and secretly if necessary. But the idea of abortion makes me cry shedloads and I don't think I could do it myself. I'd fight for one for my daughter if she wanted one, though. [04] Do you think the world would fail with a female president? Bzzt, wrong question. (Though a female President may have saved my life). [05] Do you believe in the death penalty? As far as I know, I've never lived in a country where it was legal, but I believe it exists elsewhere. It's barbaric. [06] Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already? No, I campaign for it, in a small way. [07] Are you for or against premarital sex? I find the idea of committing to marriage without investigating sex a bit alarming, frankly. [08] Do you believe in God? Bzzt, wrong question. It's not something I think matters enough to come to a firm and lasting conclusion - the existence or not of God doesn't substantively alter my behaviour or opinions, so I don't care any more. Sometimes I like to believe in something, but it's just as likely that I'm making it up for fun. [09] Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized? If it's the easiest way to let people alter their next of kin, heirs, etc, then yes - but legal marriage / civil partnership is problematic for me. I think legal divorce from one's parents would be far more useful and less harmful, overall, while often serving a very similar purpose. [10] Do you think it's wrong that so many Hispanics are illegally moving to the USA? Yes. A nation made of immigrants making immigration illegal is wrong. [11] A twelve year old girl has a baby, should she keep it? I don't know her well enough to make that judgment for her. Ask her. [12] Should the alcohol age be lowered to eighteen? It would be a logical first step to some sort of sensible arrangement. [13] Should the war in Iraq be called off? Yes, and someone should clean up the mess, too. [14] Assisted suicide is illegal: do you agree? Why yes, it is illegal. (That's a bad thing.) [15] Do you believe in spanking your children? It's never a good thing -- ever -- but it's not unforgivable. [16] Would you burn an American flag for a million dollars? I'd do much funnier things. [17] Who do you think would make a better president? McCain or Obama? Obama might actually make a good president. Unless it's the office itself which screws things up. I have great hopes for the world if he gets in. [18] Are you afraid others will judge you from reading some of your answers? No. I chose my audience.
