My True Political Self

I found this Political personality test through a lively discussion about politics on my friend Kevin Hendrick’s blog.
I thought I’d drop the results of mine here. Let’s just say it shows that I tend to want less government and more economic and personal responsibility. That means, I’m responsible to not only take care of my family but to lookout for my neighbor and beyond as God and conscience direct.

You are a
Social Moderate
(55% permissive)

and an…

Economic Conservative
(60% permissive)

You are best described as a:

Centrist

I believe we’re in a weird place as Christians living in a Democratic Republic. We have the right and civic duty to lend our voice and vote for the direction of our larger society. We all want the world to be a better place. We want children not to starve, injustice to be stopped and love for all to flourish.

Suffice it to say, I’m not holding my breath for any government to lead us to this Utopia. Although I love the country that God has placed me in. There is only one government that will lead to perfection, it belongs on the shoulders of Christ and I am eagerly awaiting it.
