7 Virtues

FAITH

1. What religion do you follow? I was born a Catholic, I was raised one and regardless of what I might sometimes think, I'll die one too. If they get you young enough...
2. What religion were you raised as? Roman Catholic.
3. Do you believe that forgiveness is a religious property, or a human property? It's not for the Catholic Church to deny, that's for sure. I think we must learn to forgive ourselves before God can really do anything for us.
4. Do you believe in magic? Yes. Someone had to give the magic in the first place, right?
5. What was the last promise you broke? I don't know.
6. Have you ever said the words to a prayer and not meant it? No.
7. Do you believe that anyone could be perfect? No, but I think some people are perfect for us.

HOPE

1. Did you get everything you wanted over the last holiday season? No. I'm still asking for World Peace.
2. Regarding your future, what is the best thing you could hope for? Being in the movies. Happiness and contentment are not things I ever expect for myself, or even if I get them, I won't like them much.
3. Do you let yourself get your hopes up for something even if you know that there is a large chance of failure? Yeah. I'm used to being disappointed really.
4. Do you believe in magic? Yes. And you asked me that before. Originality should be our watchword, people.
5. Have you ever bought a lottery ticket? once, and only because my 16th birthday fell on a lottery day.
6. Do you gamble? No.
7. Have you ever had something called off on account of bad weather, but then gone ahead and done it anyway? Nope. I just do stuff regardless of inclement weather.

CHARITY

1. What causes do you support? A few.
2. What causes have you given money or time to? Comic Relief, numerous things when I was with the Guides. Would like to do more, really.
3. Have you ever worked in a soup kitchen or done another kind of outreach for the homeless? Nope. Once helped out with the Guides at an old peoples' thing.
4. Would you ever consider joining the Peace Corps, Amnesty International, or another travel-inherent worldwide charity group? Don't know.
5. Do you give money to the homeless on the street? No. There are more constructive ways to help people.
6. Have you ever helped out a friend with basic needs, like rent or food? Yes.
7. What's the greatest extent you've gone to help a friend in need? Don't know really, there's a few things. I once lent one of my friends about 100 dollars when she needed it in California.

FORTITUDE

1. What are you most afraid of? Not death, so not mcuh.
2. What did you do today that was really brave? Got out of bed.
3. Who is your favorite superhero, and why? I always liked Supergirl as a kid, because she was a chick who was cool. Spiderman's a bit wimpy, Superman's not cool, the X Men are OK. I'm not up on superheroes.
4. Would you put your life in danger to rescue someone? Probably. If I could go back in time, I know would die for John Lennon.
5. If you were to face the Wizard, would you want more courage, more brains, or more heart? Heart. I have more than enough of the other two.
6. Have you ever gotten stage fright? No. The stage is my life. I thrive on limelight and soon new legislation will be passed in parliament naming me as the centre of attention.
7. Do you consider yourself to be a leader or a follower? Leader, but there are people I' willingly follow into hell.

JUSTICE

1. Have you ever been summoned for jury duty? Not yet.
2. If they reinstituted the draft (for both genders), would you go, or would find some way out of it? I would stand up and say 'No Clare-blood for Bush Oil'. I wouldn't go, but I wouldn't wheedle my way out.
3. Do you support capital punishment (the death penalty)? No. If Mark Chapman got the death penalty, he wouldn't have spent twenty-plus years rotting in jail as he deserves.
4. Do you believe that Dubya is rightfully President of the USA? No. He's an illegally-elected president trying to wage an illegal war.
5. What was your favorite media circus trial? The Douglas-Zeta-Jones-Hello! trial. So bloody vacuous it was a relief from all this heavy war shit. The Errol Flynn statutory rape trial was also laughable. Not funny, laughable.
6. Have you ever written a letter to a politician? I was going to write to Tony Blair to recommend George Harrison for a knighthood. Never got round to it and now it's too late. I'm sorry George.

TEMPERANCE

1. What do you have the hardest time moderating yourself on? Diet Coke. Crisps. Computeer time.
2. Do you collect anything? All kinds of crap.
3. Are you addicted to anything? Diet Coke. The sound of my own voice.
4. Have you ever put anything on layaway or used an installment plan? Only private installment plans with my dad.
5. What's your preferred method of paying for things? My dad's money. :D
6. Tell us one thing you wish you hadn't let yourself do: Go to the secondary school I went to.
7. Do you feel that you obsess over things? Yes. I have an obsessive personality. When I decide I like something (Beatles, Buffy, HP) I let it consume me for awhile.

PRUDENCE

1. Who is the wisest person you know? Myself. Seriously, my godfather: Catholic priest and very clever bloke, Fr. John.
2. Have you ever participated in a vigil? Depends what sort. Vigil mass the night before a holy day I have. But not at anyone's bedside or anything. My gran died before I got home from Lancaster, so that was a moot point.
3. Do you take advice when it's given? Depends on who's giving it and what they say.
4. What area are you wisest in? Anything that doesn't involve numbers.
5. Do you drive defensively? I'm not allowed to drive.
6. Have you ever had unprotected sex outside of marriage? Nope.
7. What did you learn today? That only one of Robert DeNiro and Kurt Russell make it to the end of Backdraft.

And of course, what is your favorite heavenly virtue? Faith. I think if you have faith, you always have hope. And if you always have hope, you'll always survive.

Gosh, wasn't that both heartening and illuminating?
