#1 - I believe that God used a little process called 'evolution' to 'create' the world and everything in it... he knew just where to place the majority of the oil too...

#2 - I'm mostly a realist with a touch of idealist thrown in. Day to day I call it like I see it, I try to keep it 'real'... but in terms of career ambitions, I am a bit of an idealist... I'm naive enough to think that I will be able to make a difference as a therapist once I get there...

#3 - definitely a pragmatist... let's keep it practical folks

#4 - Capitalist all the way... I'm a red-blooded American male... what more would you expect?

#5 - Pugilist... Freedom ain't free... 'nuff said.

1) Evolutionist.
2) Realist.
3) Pragmatist
4) Capitalist
5) Pacifist, but also being a pragmatist and a realist, pugilism is always an option.

Good questions.

1. Creationist

2. Both with heavy leaning toward realist

3. Neither, they are both extremes.

4. Neither

5. Both. Pacifist most of the time, but willing to defend myself or someone who needs defense.

What rules MY world? Murphy's Law, of course.

1. Agnostic (ist?)

2. Realist

3. Pragmatist

4. Capitalist (Communism allows truely lazy people to flourish)

5. I have to steal MasonM's, "Both. Pacifist most of the time, but willing to defend myself or someone who needs defense."

Oh... quick question: I see a lot of people quoting each other and they put a yellow border, and have the text highlighted. How do you do that?

to quote start the quote by putting the word "quote" (without parenthesis) inside square brackets [ ] to end "/quote" inside square brackets. put what you are quoting in bewteen the two.

michael, you're very lucky you remembered the wink lol

I'm mostly a realist with a touch of idealist thrown in. Day to day I call it like I see it, I try to keep it 'real'... but in terms of career ambitions, I am a bit of an idealist... I'm naive enough to think that I will be able to make a difference as a therapist once I get there...

...and the world will be a better place if you're out there helping people, michael.

citahellion ... now THERE is a man (oh dear, are you a man ?) who knows what he wants ! ...god, if you're a girl, i am SO changing sides for you

Both. Pacifist most of the time, but willing to defend myself or someone who needs defense.

Agnostic (ist?)

1/ an evolutionist or a creationist ? I believe that evolution has certainly occurred, but as an agnostic i am not sure whether or not there was some high being behind the creation of the earth.

2/ an idealist or a realist ? I would like to say a heady mix of both. I believe there are times for idealism, but certainly realism is important as well.

3/ a fantasist or a pragmatist ? Pragmatist

4/ a communist or a capitalist ? Well, the communist system is easily corruptable, but then again so is capitilsm. It seems as though the capitalist countries are doing a bit better than the communist ones.

5/ a pacifist or a pugilist ? Well, as i do fight with my fists as a sport, and plan to do so next weekend i would have to say i am a pugilist.
