Personal materialism:
1. Can money can buy happiness? NO (but it makes suffering easier )
2. Is the primary purpose of clothing aesthetic? NO. (functional)
3. Does life end at death? (no afterlife) YES.
4. Are salary raises preferable to more vacation? NO.
5. Is a new thing inherently better than an identical old one? NO.
20

Social materialism:
6. Does economic progress lead to social progress? YES.
7. Should the needs of other life be subservient to human needs? YES.
8. Should Church and State be seperate? YES.
9. Should humans settle the oceans and outer space? YES. (oceans i could care less about)
10. Would you prefer an engineer over an architect to plan a city? YES.
100

And one unscored question:
How has CIV influenced your attitudes on the above issues?
not much, i don't think so anyway. i think my beliefs have influenced my civ style, but even that isn't so true. i poprush because i can expend people, not because i am morally aligned with killing off the civilians of my empire.
