How sure are you that your view is correct? Please rate how certain your are in your views on a scale of 1-10, 1 being not very sure of my view, 10 being very sure of your view with almost no chance to change it even if presented evidence to the contrary.

Example

"The right to own a gun", If I feel that it is an absolute right to own a gun and no one can convince me otherwise I would give that a 10. If I feel that it is absolutely not the right of individuals to own a gun and no one can convince me otherwise I would also give it a 10. If I dont feel strongly about the issue at all I would give it a 1. If you are pretty certain of your views but open to changing them give it more of a middle number depending how open you feel about it. These questions are NOT being asked in a legal frame work so please do not think "legally". Please try and just give numerical answers and not worded explanations.

YOUR ANSWER IS NOT AN AGREEMENT WITH THE STATEMENT.
The questions

The right of individuals to own a gun

The right to conceal carry a gun

The right to eat meat from animals even if a healthy/sustainable vegan substitute is available (lab grown meat)

The right to hunt/trap if the target population can support the pressure

The right to have children without permits/permission

The right to marry whoever you choose

The right to terminate a pregnancy (abortion)

You are following the correct religion or are certain there is not a god or at least one we are familiar with.


I'll start

The right of individuals to own a gun-8

The right to conceal carry a gun-8

The right to eat meat from animals even if a healthy/sustainable vegan substitute is available (lab grown meat)-7

The right to hunt/trap if the target population can support the pressure-7

The right to have children without permits/permission-6

The right to marry whoever you choose-2

The right to terminate a pregnancy (abortion)-2

You are following the correct religion or are certain there is not a god or at least one we are familiar with.-5

Hunting and trapping is a privilege not a right. But, that is just going by what the definition is.

Well color me wrong, looks like some states it is a right in their state constitutions.

1. 10. That's constitutional
2. 10. Right to keep and bear arms.
3. 10. In the Bible, except I'm getting soft about animals and could give up meat for another protein.
4. 10. In the Bible.
5. 10. With that comes responsibility to take care of them.
6. 10 as long as it's a man and a woman. That's in the Bible.
7. 10 if the child has unsurmountable health issues or the mother is in danger. 10 if it is rape.
8. Three options there in one sentence. I believe in a Creator.

Maybe the last question needed more clarification. Example if you 100% believe in God it would be 10, if you 100% believe there is not a god that would be 10. I gave it a 5 because I feel pretty certain there is not a god but am open to the possibility.

"Beliefs" can't be correct or incorrect. Only right or wrong, in the opinion of those asking the question.

10 all the way.
I'm solid in my position on all issues.

While it's good to question one's logic from time to time to ensure your position is solid and to research all sides of an issue there comes a time when you dig your trenches on the hill you will defend.

Everything was a right until some government came along and took it away.

Rating my confidence in my opinion, not my agreement with any particular position:

The right of individuals to own a gun 10
The right to conceal carry a gun 10
The right to eat meat from animals even if a healthy/sustainable vegan substitute is available (lab grown meat) 10
The right to hunt/trap if the target population can support the pressure 10
The right to have children without permits/permission 10 (with the understanding that you have the right to have them, not to have someone else support them)
The right to marry whoever you choose 10
The right to terminate a pregnancy (abortion) 10 (rating my confidence in my conviction, not my agreement with the statement)
You are following the correct religion or are certain there is not a god or at least one we are familiar with. 10

All 10's. The only time I was ever wrong was when I thought I was wrong.

4. 9
5. 8 you start regulating for the benefit of mankind you start down a very steep and slippery slope into danger
6. 6 if legal age of 18 and its a man and a woman. Im a little shaky on how far government should regulate morals but i don't think stong morals are important to a strong society
7. 9 I believe God is giver of life and life is sacred and special
