What follows down below is political, very passionately so. You may want to skip it if you are a person of a sensitive disposition, or one convinced that the US foreign policy and regard for international law is beyond reproach.
Also if you read this and feel your panties bunching up into a wad, I suggest some deep breathing prior to speech. I will respond to any disagreement voiced as a rational comment but if you're just after insulting or flaming me then I will lose serious respect for you.

1. How do you relate to your parents or parental figures?
2. How do you relate to your friends group?
3. How do you envision your God? How do you feel about him and how does he feel about you?
(If you do not believe in any God you can answer by describing what you think God would be like if he did exist)
