I wound up with "Enterpriser"

Yours and mine were the two most likely libertarian options.

I also noticed I had very few strong agrees.

Same here.

I can't really agree with either.

I didn't have any problem with that one. You have to assume that the people who build school libraries have some sense and it will be a rare anomaly if they put stuff there that shouldn't be there. The only people who would want to ban "dangerous ideas" are people who consider dangerous ideas like evolution or women's rights.

I think the test might show me as more secular than I really am.

You know, Tim, you seem pretty secular to me. Once I got got past the notion that you'd have to be a religious absolutist to defer to an embryo, and I trust your assertion that you are not coming at it from that angle, I've not thought of you as anything but socially secular.

This typology is really, really bugging me. It's pretty hard to make inroads in the debate if you're totally ignored as a factor by a key player like PEW. I pulled up the full report and discovered the word, libertarian, appeared only once. That was to distinguish the Enterprisers from the rest of the right.
