My wife always takes these quizzes so I thought I would give it a try.
Not even close.
I drink Sam’s Choice diet cola because it is cheap. Seventy eight cents a two liter and I was grumpy when it went up to that price from fifty cents.

If I was rich, I would drink birch beer. Now that is good stuff.

Our Moral Compass

ODB RADIO: Listen Now |  Download
READ: 2 Chronicles 7:1-14

If My people . . . turn from their wicked ways, then I will . . . forgive their sin and heal their land. —2 Chronicles 7:14

When Abraham Lincoln was introduced to author Harriet Beecher Stowe, he reportedly said that she was “the little woman who wrote the book that started this great war.”

Although President Lincoln’s comment wasn’t entirely serious, Stowe’s novel Uncle Tom’s Cabin was instrumental in abolishing slavery in the US. Its graphic depiction of racism and the injustice of slavery helped lead to the start of civil war. Ultimately, Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation declared that all slaves “shall be free.” Thus, Stowe’s novel helped to change a nation’s moral compass.

Centuries earlier, King Solomon was told about what would change the moral compass of God’s people Israel. It was to start with humility and confession. The Lord told Solomon: “If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land” (2 Chron. 7:14).

As a Christian community, we should first take an inventory of our own personal lives. As we humbly seek God in prayer and repentance of sin, changes begin in our lives. God may then use us to change a nation’s moral compass.

Revive us again,
Fill each heart with Thy love;
May each soul be rekindled
With fire from above. —Mackay

Nothing is politically right which is morally wrong. —Lincoln
Bible in One Year: Psalms 66-67; Romans 7

How much soda do you drink?
One soda a day
A few sodas a week
Not much, only as an occasional treat
A few sodas a day
As little as possible
It varies pretty widely

Where’s the “I’m a fish swimming in a soda ocean” option?

[SoldierDad]

Well, at least they got the "stay away from Mt. Dew" part right. I'd prefer Pepsi (unless adding a little rum - then it's Coke)

Hi Kathy. I'm a pepper...

You Are Dr. Pepper

You're very unique and funky, yet you still have a bit of traditionalism to you.
People who like you think they have great taste... and they usually do.

WOW! It nailed it for me. Although I’m confused why it called me a Dr Pepper then matched me to Root Beer.
