The Paranoia Poll!

There are a certain set of opinions which society sanctions and promotes, and others which it persecutes and tries to discredit. How do your opinions match the established orthodoxy?
I believe in a Supreme Being, one beyond space, time, and the limits of physical existence.

I don't know

There is life on other planets besides Earth, and intelligent beings other than human beings.
It's a certainty
Very likely
It may be possible
I won't believe it unless it is proven by science

Other forms of intelligent life -- be they alien beings from other planets or bodiless spirits -- have visited Earth and have interacted with people.

Some people have the ability to foresee future events.
I agree
It might be possible
No, that's ridiculous; those people are hallucinating or lying
I believe that the governments of the world are all in collusion, and are run by a single central agency which may or may not be called The Illuminati.
I agree
It's possible, but I don't think so
I disagree; this is the fantasy of an unhealthy mind.
John F. Kennedy was assassinated by a group of people, rather than just a lone nut.
I agree
It's possible, but we'll never know for sure
I disagree; if it were true, the government would have told us by now
Energy technologies that could save money and protect the environment are being deliberately suppressed by oil companies and their paid lackeys in government.

Network news organizations and major newspapers deliberately mislead people by slanting the news, misreporting, and sweeping inconvenient facts under the rug.
I agree
Maybe they do to some extent, but mostly they can be trusted
I disagree; I not only believe the TV, but I obey it.
The dismal failure of public schools can be traced a hidden agenda and curricula scientifically designed to make kids gullible and easy to manipulate.

They may have an agenda, but I don't think they're deliberately trying to make our kids stupid
I disagree; kids' failure in school can be traced to bad parenting.
The National Security agency -- which can tap any phone in the world -- randomly listens in on people's phone calls just to keep tabs on the population at large.
I agree
It's possible, but probably it doesn't happen that often
I disagree; they never spy on anyone without a court order.
The government deliberately lets drugs flow into the inner cities in order to weaken minority communities.
I agree
I don't know, but I don't think so
I disagree; they're doing everything they can to stop drugs
I believe this poll was actually created by agents from the Illuminati, and that everyone who answers it is being spied upon.
I agree
I never thought about it before; now I'm nervous
I disagree; there is no Illuminati, and everything on the internet is completely safe.
