Just my guess.
Nobody cares about your rank, but nice try attempting to insert yourself into it.

This makes little sense.

You claim to not care if others know how you perceive yourself, yet you care to know how others perceive you?

I grew up in the Church with an SP presidency grandfather and my father as my bishop during my HS years yet I still managed to make many follies in my youth. Took sometime for me to get on my mission, but it was worth it and changed my life also. Not necessarily the mission, but the process of becoming worthy to serve.

Uh, isn't that exactly what this exercise requires, except in my case.

You're fortunate I condescended to even give you that much.

How can one rank him or herself without making a judgment about others' relative orthodoxy? Take your time before answering.

Thank you for the time. You are very generous. next time I will draw a map for you. I am talking about a ranking of all particapnts. Under this question, one ranks oneself relative to toerhs who are already present. One's self ranking is a division, meaning everyone else knows where they stand realtive to one's unexpressed self-assessment. SO what? Perhpas you just wish to call attenti0on to the fact that you are proudly at one end of the spectrum.

Again, thanks for the time to respond.

I can't believe I'm that close to the top still. I think people are embarassed to be considered orthodox. Shame on you guys. Have confidence in who you are.

I'm extremely Orthodox in my behaviors. But I'm not so Orthodox in my beliefs.
