trying to figure out my RL alignment

[Herobizkit]

You must be somewhere around Moncton NB, eh?

Personally, I feel you're Chaotic Good, "Rebel":
A chaotic good character acts as his conscience directs him with little regard for what others expect of him. He makes his own way, but he’s kind and benevolent. He believes in goodness and right but has little use for laws and regulations. He hates it when people try to intimidate others and tell them what to do. He follows his own moral compass, which, although good, may not agree with that of society.

I think that mandatory recycling is a good idea; enforcing a recycling program implies that garbage and waste management is becoming an issue in your area.

I haven't read the thread in detail, but unless it's really obvious, you'd be Neutral.

You have to really stand out of the crowd to not be Neutral.

I am from Moncton, NB

Enforcing a recycling program only proves that city council wants to feel all warm and gushy about themselves with lack of valid reasoning, and they want to use the time and effort of their citizens to do it. In each and every case excepting that of metals you can make new materials cheaper, better and with less energy and resources than with recycled.

Why recycle ? It feels good and makes you seem responsible..... Heroin feels good too (I'm told) and without the pesky responsibility thing.

At any rate this was tossed out there for people to have fun stating opinions and debating and not because I actually have a burning desire to know my alignment, but most of you likely already got that.

Failing to adhere to a regulation regarding domestic refuse really isn't big enough to show up on the alignment radar.

If you were in a big corporation, dumping toxic waste against the law would be notable. But really, this is penny-ante stuff. It is probably mostly overwhelmed by other behaviors.

cheating on your spouse isn't illegal as far as I know

For those that'd like to know

Here's a break down by state (I'd ignore the source - I just found it on a google search a long time ago.)
and here's the wiki on Adultery Basically do not commit Adultery in Illinois as it is a 5 year prison sentence.

I don't think so

Well, the whole kill, rape, torture thing is not a Law/Chaos type of thing. It is a Good/Evil type of thing. Sometimes the law makes up rules for morale things such as these, and sometimes it doesn't (cheating on your spouse isn't illegal as far as I know, but it certainly isn't a "good" thing to do).

The whole garbage thing is more along the lines of Law/Chaos as there are no moral reprecussions for obeying or disobeying.

Based on my limited knowledge of you other than what you post here, I would have to go with either NG or CG.

Even evil people won't do an evil thing if they can't get away with it. NG or CG wouldn't be go against the government if the government wasn't evil. Gov't is LN. Law necessarily won't do anything if morality wasn't a law, yet if it was in a sense (Like some personal code it once held, or against God or similar authoritive beings), that it went against, like we know commiting crimes are bad, and doing it makes us feel bad. If we know in our hearts if it is bad (or evil, it doesn't matter), then we commited an evil act.
The opposite of Lawful Neutral is always chaotic neutral. Neutral is its own opposition because it contradicts its own issues of morality, and is recessive to evil and good, chaos and law, so if one was neutral- or -neutral, the other alignment would show out more. The description given was a character who was selfish. He won't go out of his way to murder or rape someone, yet he would break the law because he felt like it. D&D classifies this as CN. A CG would only break that law if by following it would harm himself and/or others. A NG would follow it blindly because they won't commit evil acts by that would result in chaos. A neutral wouldn't care in the least, or try to reform it if it was too radical. A LN would uphold it, a LE would use it to his own purposes when and if the situation arises, CE would murder the man who made this law if he could and could get away with it.
