Do you have problems with handwashing, checking, or counting rituals?

You left out the Luddites, Left and Right.

If you must label people, why not just say they are people with different beliefs?

Obviously a one-dimensional scale (left-right) is a factually worthless descriptor.

And that's why the MSM keeps it around.

I would also include anything that would be considered "New Age" in the "Religious Left" category.

Atheist right: Confuses Liberty with Libertine

Actually that's the Religous Right. The merest suggestion that people make their own choices instead of the Government gets the accustation that you want people/yourself to become heroin using homosexuals

***"Right:
Small Government
Limited by Law - Constitution
Limited by structure - checks & balances
Low taxes, low spending, little regulation***



The above sure rules out George Bush and the Republican Party

Nor would I consider either most of the Religious Right or most modern conservatives to be classical liberals.

Atheism = Libertine? If you're going to do this kind of thing thoughtfully, you have to learn to leave your personal prejudices behind.

Unfortunately some Freepers seem to think that if you don't accept creationism and intelligent design as fact, or don't think that a brain-dead woman can magically come back to life, you belong in the Aethist category.

Except for the "Confuses Liberty with Libertine" dig, this was pretty useful.

the ends justifies the means
and
morals are relative

Even though I have a picture of Ayn Rand on my homepage, I'm definitely more of the classical liberal/modern conservative (modernist-conservative?) variety.
