Atheist, libertarian and apolitical!

Yeah it's "Atheist," not "Atheistic." :p

I fall somewhere between libertarian and leftist. A free market is a fine ideal, however I believe a certain infrastructure is extremely important when it comes to the poor and working class.

Though I am greatly prone to spelling and grammar mistakes, I'm note sure I made one here.

"Religious," "spiritual" and "agnostic" are all adjectives and nouns. So, going with the adjective "atheistic", instead of the noun "atheist," is still consistent with the other religious options.

In all honesty, since I was rushing, I probably wrote "atheistic" because it sounds like "agnostic."

Either way, I appreciate the comments and participating in the poll.

:)

Since some are sharing their choices publicly, I will play along:

I am spiritual (though I greatly respect the religious), conservative and libertarian.

I see. I was thrown off - you're right!

To be fair, your criticism could apply to the last label, which should be "anarchistic." However, since they don't believe in any rules, they have no right to complain. ;)

For those who choose "libertarian" I would love to know if they lean left or right. In the U.S.A. libertarians are usually associated with the Republican Party, but I wonder if that is the case in the rest of the world?

I'm a leftist atheist. Or an atheist leftist.;-)

I would probably lean a bit toward the right but I don't really like the tradition left/right distinction. It always depends on the matter at hand.

Obviously defining all religious and political beliefs down into 9 labels is going to engage in massive over simplification. Personally, I like the conservative (tradition), liberal (freedom) and leftist (equality) distinction better than just right and left.

I liked your oversimplification

Thank you! It is a gift. :p

Somewhere between agnostic and atheist - I really haven't made up my mind yet.

Also hovering around leftist, I agree with a lot of the ideas of liberals but I also think they can just be really fucking stupid to the point I just want to disassociate myself from them lol. But if push came to shove I'd always choose liberal over conservative.
