    I wanted to see who everyone thought they were. This may seem confusing, but keep it simple: what do you consider yourself, in order? What do you most deeply or most visibly identify with?

    A Christian first?

    An American first?

    An Atheist first?

    A soldier first?

    A Christian second?

    An American second?

    --and so on, as far as you'd like to go--

    This is fairly difficult for me to put in a poll, so the answers are going to be VERY general. I would prefer it if you elaborated on your answers in your post. You will need to specify the order of your beliefs, however.

    YEC = Young-Earth Creationist.

    OEC = Old-Earth Creationist.

    EC/TE = Evolutionary Creation/Theistic Evolution.

    YEC, OEC, and EC/TE are positions Christians hold.

    Deistic Evolution is, quite simply, Evolutionary theory from a Deistic position (DE).

    Atheistic Evolution is Evolutionary theory without God (AE).

    Neither DE nor AE are positions Christians hold.

    Mine is as follows (tentatively):

    1. Christian
    2. American
    3. Political Conservative
    4. Creationist (YEC)
    5. Muscian (Bass singer/Percussionist).
    6. RPer/Writer (sci-fi, fantasy, fanfics, Christian fiction).
    7. Bookworm (sci-fi, fantasy, Christian fiction).
    8. Ethnicity -- Cherokee
    9. Counterculture -- Furry.
    10. Other (just to cover anything I missed)
    Your argument is so abstract that its vapidity swirls to the brink of nothingness, theoretically meaningful, but ultimately lacking in concrete nouns and other signs of well-conceived ideas. ~Yves

    Your "conservative" and "liberal" are going to throw people off. See, I am very conservative in my personal life and on many moral/social issues, but I`m an economic liberal.
    I refer to myself as a "conservative" person, though referring to private life, moral standards, etc. Not political views.


    Lets see. To put me in order:

    1.) Hindu
    2.) Ethnic person
    3.) Conservative
    4.) Global citizen
    5.) Horror fan
    6.) Theistic Evolutionist
    7.) American
    8.) "Moderate" political stance

    Some are laughing with Your freedom,

    Others weep tears of Your tenderness,
    Still others dance, whirling with Your bliss.

    No no no, I wasn&#39;t asking "how?" I was just saying how, like indians do.

    I realize some terms may be confusing, or that you may dislike some terms, but please vote honestly, regardless, if at all possible. Please explain any objections in the thread.

    From your poll, I only consider myself a Christian. There are a whole bunch of things I could pile under 'other', though.
