They're at extreme opposites
c.Do you feel your personal politics spring more from how you perceive your needs or from your personal morality? Something else? Tell me what you base your political decisions on?

Hm... Probably more passive

No. I think a lot of celibate people have serious issues.
g. Do you feel sex between two consenting adults can be "wrong"?
Not if both consent to it
h. Do you believe there are any inherent differences between the minds of men and women?
Not if both male and female manage grow beyond the indoctrination that is beaten into us about the different sex.
i. Do you think strangers can have satisfying sex?
I wouldn't know, but sure, why shouldn't they be able to?
j. Conversely do you think it is possible to have sex with the same person for 30 years and still find it exciting and fullfilling? What about hot?
Absolutely
4. Food
a. Do you cook?
Yes
b. Do you feel the use of mixes and prepared foodstuffs is a moral question?
Not necessarily moral than a matter of awareness. Personally, I prefer to know what goes into the food I prepare for myself and my family, and as far as mixes and ready-made foods are concerned, one needs some scientific degree to read the ingredients list...
c. How often do you eat meals outside the home?
Once a week usually.
d. How often do you have a sit down meal at home?
Every day
e. Do you feel eating is a moral question? Do you feel you are a moral failure when take great pleasure from eating?
Everything in life should be a pleasure. Eating is just one of those pleasures.
f. Do you feel morally superior when you refrain from eating?
No, just grumpy and hungry!
g. Do you ever pass judgement on strangers based on the items in their grocery carts?
I try very hard not to, but do fail every now and then.
5. Religion
a. Do you believe in a god or gods?
I believe in the prime creator
b. Do you feel your god/s is/are personal and are concerned with the minutae of your daily life?
No
c. Do you think other people who believe as you believe are inherently better people than those who have different beliefs?
No
d. If you could wave a magic wand and convert everyone on earth to your belief would you? Why? Why not?
No. Because each being has to follow their own path, which is not necessarily the same as mine.
e. Were you converted from one religion to another?
No
f. Was your religion inherited, as in do you worship and believe in much the same fashion as your parents and grandparents before you?
No
g. To what extent are your religious beliefs cultural? Or to put it another way are they the prevailing beliefs and customs of your social set? Is your religion "normal" for your area?
My belief is not cultural, nor is it "normal" here in the South.
h. Does the god of your understanding play favorites or does it love everyone more or less equally?
No favorites. Love is the key to everything is what the creator knows.
i. Does the god of your understanding condone killing?
The creator does not judge
j.Does the god of your understanding play favorites with one gender over the other? Making only women her emissaries on Earth, for instance, or saying that women are the "natural" heads of the household and men their "servants"?
No
k. Does god as you understand it care if teenagers masturbate?
No
l. How does your god feel about sex?
Prime creator understands that orgasm is as close to Creation as we can come in this third dimensional reality.
m. Same sex marriage?
Love is always right
