:) what's that supposed to mean??
you trying to say I'm a bad person huh? ;)
Nah. I too answered 'yes' to the 'some people deserve to die' question, but I'd apply that only to the worst of the worst that would otherwise escape penalty. Osama Bin Laden, Roy Meadows, Linda Barker, etc.

It said "Limbo" when I tried it. I was honest, too. Low for everything else except level 7 (violent) where it said "moderate."

Thats 50$ from you also.

I got a Level One-Limbo, and I think it fits with my ideals quite properly. I was indeed honest about most things.
I answered the question about whether I hated my countrymen wrong.
I do indeed hate quite a lot of my countrymen, but I answered in accordance with the spirit of the test.

Most people just live their lives in pursuit of happiness. I quite disagree and think it is wrong(even childish). This goes against my ideals as I wish to live a life which is "useful". Others should prosper from my work. My motivation is to simply make (say) my grandchildren and great-grandchildren(who will know me only by name) proud of me and what I did or tried to do.

Better get a new batch of halos.
