Somewhere between a Methodist and a Christian Humanist. I believe in a higher power, God the father who is the creator of all things and the giver of natural law which is the basis for civilization.

I must confess, that I myself seem to have this kind of problem being what some would call a light weight. I usually prefer Stouts and IPA's over domestic Pilsners and Lagers. It was around June of last year that I went to a party with a couple of friends, drank the half of a bottle of Smirnoff and... |

I, too, am an anarchist. I also don't believe in privilege by birthright, ergo I hate monarchies. Same here. In fact I wish we didn't have such a thing as currency. Measuring a person's worth as a human being in bank notes and little round peices of metal is such crap. :| A world without money or w... |
