the first thing that jumped to my mind was the word 'hilter'.. and i know better. hilter was a self-admitted socialist that adopted a slightly different form of socialism known as 'national socialism'. any form of socialism relies on big government power, which as you know, i'm against. yet, when i looked at my score, i thought 'hitler'. it was so ingrained in me growing up (that hilter was to the far right), that it was the first thing i thought of when i saw my score. but hilter was far-left, not far-right. i've had arguments with someone on another board that wants to use execution centers. i told him that execution centers would require lots of government power. someone that wants a powerful government, is left, not right. i'm at the polar opposite of hilter, yet because i'm far-right, i get associated with him even by MYSELF! that's how strong indoctrination is. i know logically that my thinking is nothing like that of hilter, yet his name was the first thing i thought of when i saw my score. the socialists were very successful at turning the table and labeling the far-right as hitlerian, when it certainly isn't true. incidentally, i'm not religious. i don't believe that anyone could know the mind of God, if He exists. yet, i do feel there is 'something'. so i suppose i could be called 'spiritual'.
