As long as it all comes out to a good story in the end, it doesn't matter whether a god exists or not.
43. What are your political views?
I don't have any right now, to be honest..but the Administrators here could use some reforming, in my opinion.

..It's not a bad thing if you do it safely..
45. Are you able to kill? Under what circumstances do you find killing to be acceptable or unacceptable?

46. In your opinion, what is the most evil thing any human being could do?
Backstabbing people, crushing them utterly, and genocide for stupid and foolish reasons.
