Over the years I've undergone an alignment shift. I used to be neutral good but now am closer to true neutral.

Neutral good with chaotic evil tendencies.

I am neutral evil, just in case you didn't guess that already Tongue

I went with neutral. Nothing more exciting than being neutral.

Chaotic is an attitude about society and governments, not a rejection of their utility.

That attitude comes with actual action behind it. Otherwise how are you behaving chaotically? You aren't. Behavior stems from attitude. If you have an attitude about the law, but still obey it, you are lawful good or neutral good. I mean, in a d&d game, a chaotic good character is expected to behave choatic good, not just have some beliefs.

I don't think any of us are quite that simple. I am mostly lawful good with occasional spots of chaotic good due to impatience or in a couple of cases bravery. But I've been known to lapse into lawful neutral out of tiredness or chaotic bad in anger.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

Wait, I thought that was just in Mafia?
I had to go with the consensus alignment (Chaotic good) as my sun sign but with Chaotic neutral rising.

Still trying to figure out where attentive bottom is on the scale . . . .
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

(My emphasis)
So if you put Hitler into a prison system where he decides it's best to go by the rules and not cause harm to anyone, that would make him lawful good?

I break laws all the time. I smoke weed, for instance (chaotic). But I try my best not to be interpersonally destructive (good). Victimless crimes are not crimes in my book, even though they may contribute to order in a society. There are laws against murder. I follow those laws and appreciate that they are there, but I don't think that makes me lawful. My problem with murder isn't that it violates the law and compromises an orderly society. My problem with it is that it is evil.

Think about figures such as Martin Luther King, who rejected the system of order of his day and fought against it. Is he chaotic good or neutral good? Many might say neutral, but I say chaotic, though I might be persuaded to change my opinion here...

I think figures like Joseph Stalin and Hitler are lawful evil (which, to me, seems like the "worst" alignment-- hence another reason why I say I am chaotic good.)

Thoughts on this?

Magi, are you a sociopath? I remember you mentioning that once before here, but didn't know if you were serious.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
