According to the video you'd tend to rate higher on In-group/loyalty, Authority/respect and -if you weren't such a godless rebel- Purity/sanctity. Of course, results can vary. The phrase "guns and bibles" come to mind but I'm not at all sure you'd embrace either of those. How about a general tendency to see the world as an unsafe place requiring vigilance and preparedness? And of course a high regard for tradition writ large. But that's just off the top of my head. What would you say about it?
World: Not really unsafe, but then my world is fairly small now. Not so much on the vigil, more on the prepared or planed. I do like consistency. Weird is another discussion
Tradition: I have no problem with it, if you like that sort of thing. I'm fairly traditionless. There is no Thanks Giving, Xmas or other holiday tradition, but I did grow up with them. Can't think of another tradition that I routinely observe other than voting. If you can give other examples of tradition I'll tell you if I observe them.
Guns: Nailed that one. But they are only toys and hobbies. No pistols.
Gun bibles: None. Internet gives me everything I need.
Bible: Merck Manual (vet addition also), Goodman and Gillman, there are others.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
