Answer 2

politics - I'm from the U.K. so non of those, I'm conservative

hope - better future & tolerance

soul mates - yes

music - I have music on all the time, some you can drift to like hawkwind, gong, pink floyd & some demand attention like new model army, stiff little fingers, clash. others just for enjoyment like nozzle, chumberwamba, korpiklaani

religion - found it hard to believe from an early age, around ten yrs. can find my way round a bible & dont like people trying to convert me as it holds nothing for me but I respect others choice

age - Im forty

Answer 3

Hi.

I live in Australia. I don't follow politics too closely. But I think that I am much more politcally aware then others of my age. I am a socialist. The names you suggest to me do not have much significance to me. The names of politcal parties  eg democrats don't really correspond to their policy imo. Just a name -  in australia the main, leading political parties are basically the same (labour party/liberal party, labour is just slightly better) I believe. Same as in amercia.

Hope - denial, white dresses, a girl named hope, the last resort. (my mind is random). Wishing for something.

No I don't believe in soul mates. I do believe in well matched people and falling in love.

I really like music and I do follow the lyrics. When they are more complex than usual (eg nivana) I look up theories of their meaning on the internet.

I was raised accepting that god exists and I went to protestant scripture at school. But at the same time, my parents were not active in religion, I don't think they believe either. But now I no longer believe. I would be comforted by religion. I agree with someone above who said religion holds civilisations back and it is to control societies. Generalising - religion is discriminatory and illogical. If I were religious I would follow buddhism.

I am 16.

Thanks for the cool survey - very interesting.  

:)

Answer 4

Kind of but not really...enough where I could hold a somewhat intellectual conversation about it.  I am very liberal registered as Democrat.

Believing

Yes, I have found my soul mate

I love music...you will never find me without my headphones on.  I follow the lyrics to certain songs and other songs are just cool to listen to and let my mind wander.

Religion is a tool of control developed to give people a false sense of hope

I am 18

Answer 5

I am a liberal leaning towards Democrat

When I hear hope I don't think anything really

Yes, i believe only one partner is good

I love all music, I just like to listen to the tune rather then pay attention to the lyrics

I believe religion has been holding civilization down (I am a strong atheist)

Answer 6

I'm a democrat

That things will get better

Yes

I love music, and listen to it constantly, and I listen to lyrics

It's good to have faith in something

Answer 9

I don't like to follow politics, they get me all confused.

When I think about hope, I imagine myself in a tunnel and there's a light at the end :)

Yes I believe in soul mates, as in people that you can love and a different type that you can just be friends with.

I love music, it always helps me when I'm feeling down. I think anyone can relate to music, as you can interpret the lyrics differently. I'm bad at listening to the lyrics, my mind wanders to think about other stuff, usually helps solve some problems when you listen to music.

Some parts of religion help you to be a better person, but we're not perfect so we can't always follow it. I just prefer to be happy with myself. Some religion is brainwashing. Maybe some parts just help insecure people feel better, idk.

I'm 14.

Actually, I wonder about that sort of stuff all the time. :)

Answer 10

I have no interest in politics & I'm English so none apply to me.

Hope=the way forward

I'm with my soul mate

I love music,sometimes I'm in the mood for background music & sometimes I really like to listen closely,depends on my  mood.

I think organised religion is absurd (believing a being in the sky is controlling our lives & we have to adhere to what's written in a 2000+ year old book???)

Dreams.
