God refers to a supernatural being, not necessarily the Christian one.

It's a very black/white poll, Fuzzy. There is no clear boundary between "liberal" and "conservative". For instance, I have very conservative views on quite a few issues, yet I am also a socialist. Yet my views on things are too strong to be "non-aligned"; I am deeply interested in politics and civic affairs.

I cannot answer this poll either. If I selected one of those options, it would give a misleading view of me. I do not think people can easily or accurately be fitted into "conservative", "liberal", and "non-aligned" categories. Maybe some people can, but not most people. And even if a person claims that they are liberal, you will probably find that they are liberal about some things and conservative about others. In other words, these descriptors of people seem excessively simplistic.

It is like asking people whether they are white-skinned or black-skinned. There are many more shades of skin color than just those 2. I am with bt1978 on this one.

Yikes. you guys are so right. How short sighted of me. I guess I was thinking of the actual act of voting, which a lot of members cannot do either.
