Where do your loyalties PRIMARILY lie?






A psychotic veteran ranting about "If you don't like this country, get the hell out" and walking down the street made me ponder this question.

For me, it's family by a long shot, and "human society" would be second - I think nationalism is nonsense.

2. The cat

*waiting for the cat to leave the room*.... Okay, okay, family. ;)

5. ROFLOL!!! I have a cat too. I understand where you're coming from...

3. I had a company person tell me

"Don't let your marriage interfere with your job"

I found a much better job.

4. humanity because my father is a die hard republican.

We have fought bitterly over politics and have agreed to disagree. Regardless, I love him all the same. So, my loyalty is not necessarily to family (as they can be wrong on things) as I am to humanity. You can't go wrong with that.

6. Ones country is important...

...however, if your country becomes a rogue nation, and you have the ability to get out you can. But your family can never be replaced.

I would give up my country in a heart beat to be with Sapphocrat. She is my family!

7. If my sister decided to murder someone and eat their brains.

I'm afraid I'd have to turn her in. My family happens to fall within the "humanity" spectrum.

8. god, followed quite closely by family.

9. Family...

(including my animals) for me is the most important, it helps that they are Democrats too. :-)

10. myself

as long as I have the luxury of helping society I'll do it, but I'm not going to get myself killed over it.

11. I don't agree with the "either/or" of this poll...

For me, as a deeply spiritual person, by believing in "God" I am also naturally believing in family and humanity. Country is just a man-made abstraction, and is completely neutral -- capable of supporting family/humanity or opposing it.

12. To the Constitution of the United States, to government of we the people,

of, by and for the people rather than for special or vested interests. Sadly both major political parties have failed monstrously, the Republicans much more so, IMHO.
