Questionnaire Redux: Pro or Con - Results

[Frau_Blucher]

I just found a DAMNED interesting spreadsheet from a questionnaire done here almost 3 years ago. The text of that now-archived thread went like this:

[i]Well, here's your chance to let it all hang out. Recent discussions seem to always polarize one side versus the other. I have a feeling that most of us may be more balanced in our views on the whole. To that end, I came up with this questionnaire drawn partly from many of the topics that we've touched on in the past.

Anyone interested in bearing all and scoring these on a 1 to 5 scale? I will even score the group average, though not on an individual basis. How you may ask? Being "Pro" on some topics indicates a more classically conservative bent or vice versa - I have made a note of which questions lean which way and will flip the scoring accordingly. I will even take your answers in email and keep them private if you're too bashful to post here:

1 = Strongly Pro
2 = Pro
3 = Don’t Know/Don’t Care/Neither
4 = Con
5 = Strongly Con[/i]

We ended up with 25 participants and when the answers were tabulated, we ended up with the chart below of the averages to the questions. Closer to 1 was deemed "more conversative" and closer to 5 was deemed "more liberal":

Now, who all these members and their abbreviations were, we may never know again. [;)]

BUT, since we have so many new members and it happens to be that political sort of time again, is anybody interested in another go at this?? Just write down the number of the question below and your 1 to 5 rating next to it. Old members can choose to keep their replies or submit new ones. Plus with new clustering technology, we can go beyond just comparing averages but also correlate the members to eachother based on the patterns of all the questions - drool! [:o)]

1. Abortion in Rape, Incest, Medical
2. Abortion, Personally
3. ACLU
4. Affirmative Action – Gender
5. Affirmative Action – Race
6. Bush Administration
7. Death Penalty
8. Decriminalization of Pot
9. Democratic Party
10. Drilling in the Alaska Preserve

14. Former Clinton Administration
15. Gay Adoption
16. Gay Marriage Protection
17. Gay Rights
18. Gay Unions but not Marriage (meaning anti gay marriage but concede some other formalized union)
19. George Bush, Personally
20. God
21. God Creating Evolution
22. Homosexuality on Primetime TV
23. Kyoto Protocol
24. Limited Gun Control
25. Literal Creationism
26. Medical Marijuana
27. Organized Religion
28. Patriot Act
29. The Pope
30. Premarital Sex
31. Pro-choice
32. Racial Profiling (ie. you agree it's okay to do)
33. Republican Party
34. Right to Bear Arms
35. Right to Concealed Arms
36. Sterilization of Repeat Sexual Offenders
37. Three Strikes and You’re Out Laws
38. War in Iraq
39. Macintosh Computers
40. Corey Hart

PS. This is to be kept a friendly exercise - NO FLAMING. Also, last time we had a member thinking the solicitation of such a questionnaire somehow violated the privacy terms of the NWO. Let me be clear, you are not compelled to participate in any way. [B)]

Nah, I think he'd rather hand out a punishment not many have already had.

[Frau_Blucher]

I'm losing control!

Flight Com, I can't hold it, she's breaking up...she's breaking up!!!

[WolverineSyr]

I will always remember Kimii stating that she was anti-gay rights because she didn't believe in special rights for special people...then she said she was against gay marraige. I recall it was Z who nailed her on it. It's one of my favorite stupid comments ever made on the boards.
