You scored as Classical Liberal. You are a classical liberal. You are sceptical about much of the historicity of the Bible, and the most important thing Jesus has done is to set us a good moral example that we are to follow. Doctrines like the trinity and the incarnation are speculative and not really important, and in the face of science and philosophy the surest way we can be certain about God is by our inner awareness of him. Discipleship is expressed by good moral behaviour, but inward religious feeling is most important.

Law enforcment access to Internet communications expanded – NJ.com: Star-Ledger updates:
Cyberspace became more transparent today.

Effective today, broadband providers and Internet phone companies must open their networks for lawful intercepts of e-mails, calls and other electronic communications.

Authorities hail the move as an important step to combat terrorism and crime. Critics call it another erosion of personal freedoms.

The new rules mark an expansion of government surveillance capabilities first aimed at mobile phones in 1994, in a law called CALEA, short for the Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act.

Instead of “How intelligent is…?”, the proper question for the future of learning (and all things of value to us) would be “In what way is…intelligent?”
