Which are you

[lyrics101]

I'm not going to edit my last post- I feel like I should state this independent of it.

Awesome post; I realize this board only displays a small minority of all the fans this band has, but that's how ALL polls are run.

The coolest thing about this poll, after looking at it, is that the majority of those who respond are in two of the extremes politicaly and theologically that are offered, and all the middle-ground in betwixt these extremes is filled to at least a small extent.

I think its cool as hell that DMB can bring these two together despite Dave's obvious political orientation. He's not really politically bent in his song-writing, so it says something. It screams, "Good music is being made."

im also agnostic, and around here that means atheist, because if you are fanatically christian your going to hell because everyone is better than you. so i just say christian, and im a flaming liberal, same with that, but ill fight it.

I'm a Democratic athiest, and people always assume that means agnostic. It gets annoying, so I can relate with the confusion around that statement.

To tell you the truth, I don't even know what agnostic means. I know what atheist is. On either hand, I can't relate. Sorry

Agnostic is acknowledging that there is a creator or something bigger than themselves.

Agnostics I have met believe that the God of the Bible isn't necessarily THE God. It could be Allah, Muhammed, Buddha, God(the Trinity), Joe Pesci, or whatever.

This is a non DMB post and uneccessary.

Please don't attempt to profile people.

unless they're in an airport right? /grin

OF COURSE, that's perfectly okay!

I'm guilty of being a hypocrite in this regard, I am. Can't deny it.

This is one of the coolest threads in a while. A ton of disagreements, but everyone explained their opinion well and talked through it.

And I'm not going to move it because I have no idea where this is supposed to go

Well put.

You post says it all

This has been a pretty cool thread. To be honest, I am suprised by the results. I expected it to be lop sided.

It is does not suprise me that DMB brings all these different viewpoints together. In dave's songs, he writes about things that everyone can relate to. No matter if your young, old, black, white, Republican, Democrat life really comes down to living life to the fullest, love, relationships, and confronting the reality of your own mortality. I think a lot of Dave's songs reflect ideals that all political spectrums can agree with. I think everybody pretty much wants the same thing, people just disagree on the approach to it. Politics is such a dirty game that often times ideals and thoughts get caught up in the dirty side of it.

I'm surprised there aren't more independents.

I don't like being called a democrat, but I'm not a republican either. I voted for more democrats than the latter, but still a few nonetheless. and I guess I would say I'm agnostic.

[Appfro]

wow. great thread. one day i'll go through and read the whole thing. i voted democrat christian. but i need to say that i'm way more conservative than most democrats but even more liberal than most republicans and i'm really pissed at their party right now.
