Communist!

Only a communist would accept this "decree" from the "scientists."

In other news.. the internet thinks this is me:
Category Unknown
You don't fit into any of the above categories, so perhaps before you get angry or confused, check what other religion(s) you scored the highest on. For example, you might be a Christian-Pagan, or a Discordian-Wiccan. Just use a bit of logic. However, according to this test, you're simply 100% YOU. You don't fit into any of the world's boxes.
WHAT RELIGION BESTS SUITS YOU?


You Are a Mermaid (Merman!)
You are a total daydreamer, and people tend to think you're flakier than you actually are.
While your head is often in the clouds, you'll always come back to earth to help someone in need.
Beyond being a caring person, you are also very intelligent and rational.
You understand the connections of the universe better than almost anyone else.

What Mythological Creature Are You?

You scored as Existentialism. Your life is guided by the concept of Existentialism: You choose the meaning and purpose of your life.

"Man is condemned to be free; because once thrown into the world, he is responsible for everything he does."
"It is up to you to give [life] a meaning."
--Jean-Paul Sartre

"It is man's natural sickness to believe that he possesses the Truth."
--Blaise Pascal

More info at Arocoun's Wikipedia User Page...

Existentialism   85%
Nihilism   60%
Divine Command   60%
Utilitarianism   55%
Hedonism   50%
Kantianism   40%
Justice (Fairness)   35%
Apathy   30%
Strong Egoism   15%

What philosophy do you follow? (v1.03)
My Comment:
Kind of funny...
A free thinker who might believe nothing,
or might believe God gives him all his tasks.


I Scored for political party:
Anarchism   100%
Socialist   83%
Green   67%
Communism 50%
Democrat  50%
Republican   33%
Nazi   0%
Fascism   0%

What Political Party Do Your Beliefs Put You In?
Heh... I guess this is where I say "Duh" and move on with life. I am not even sure if most people know what Anarchy means. *sigh*


Which Hair Metal Band are you?

You're Iowa!
You are very concerned with hawks and their nature. Particularly, the eye of the hawk has always captivated you, drawing you in with its piercing stare. It frankly doesn't take a lot to get your attention, but once it's been gained, your attention is unflinching. Though your influence appears minimal, a meeting you hold at your place every few years is monumental in its implications. At that meeting, you don't discuss where the monks came from, even though you want to know.
Blue Pyramid State Quiz

You are HALDOL!
Powerful, universal. Schizophrenics hate you because you're always taking their friends away, you forker. You like to enjoy a cocktail with your good friends Atty Vann and Cog Entin.
Which anti-psychotic drug are you?
