Lets see:
I guess my ideology comes down to being the most responsible I can for myself, and those around me.
I am challenged to be self-sacrificing because of my relationship with Jesus, and my understanding of the Bible. I live my life by James 1:27:
'Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.'
So I try to be as moral as possible, denying whatever I can for the good of others, and those around me. I also try to live a life of charity. I want to be as generous as possible to those around me, as I try to dedicate time & money to causes like homelessness and teaching others how to be financially free of debt. I'd say its worked out for me pretty well - I'm worth a decent sum of money due to investments, and have very little unsecured debt.
Ideologically, I am a strong individualist. I don't believe anyone has the right to rule over another person, sans for very basic government, God, and voluntary association. Because of that, I am against many forms of government intervention - in the market, pensions, and education of people. However, on the same token, the only way for that to happen is to ensure that every person works with charity in mind, to help others, lest a pervasive government will help them. I've worked in food pantries for many years, so I've seen what charity looks like and does.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
