The Dante's Inferno Test has sent you to the First Level of Hell - Limbo! Here is how you matched up against all the levels:
I am known as Homo economicus on the RichardDawkins.net, where I am a moderator on the forum part.
My main blog where I write about humanist and secular issues as well as cover the Atheist Alliance International Conference 2007 attended by Dawkins, Harris, Hitchens and Dennett can be found at:
Adam Smith fan (my picture) so in economics I follow the liberal classical tradition, interpreted in the modern Rawlsian sense. This effectively is a fancy way of saying capitalism designed to benefit the disadvantaged of society. The market serving us not the other way round.

Thanks for accepting my add. I think I came across your profile from the RD forum or something like that. I'm a lurker on the forum, I'm more a consumer of information than one for putting my own thoughts down! I added you as I saw your pretty damn local - I'm from NW Leics; I'm guessing your probably a member of Leicester secular society as well? I joined last year, but so far haven't been able to make any meetings due to other commitments, got to sort that soon! Keep up the good fight.
Merry christmas .. hope santa was good to you. The kids had a good one and you was missed sadly by all. I still have your christmas and birthday present at home so will bring them with me when we next meet. It was not the same without you down here yesterday and the kids all want you to come see them soon. Love always xx
