Part 2.

When I was younger, I was raised in a very conservative Christian family, typically, I tried to rebel against what I was told. The harder they told me I had to be this person, the harder I would rebel. Going to a Christian school a liberal point of view just wasn’t excepted. I would bring up evolution in science class, and even brought up the possibility God didn’t exist in Bible class. I soon realized that in most incidents I was doing this just to be a rebel. I didn’t have any sense of what I really believed in.
Trying to explore who I was, was not easy. I began going to Church, for myself and not because my parents told me to. Inevitably, I began to alter my life around what the Church told me to do. I shredded my porn collection, rock music, and anything that wasn’t "Christian" within that since. I picked up other habit as in: listening to Rush Limbaugh, watching 700 club, and voted more conservatively.

Part 3
I was beginning to feel like a zombie, as if I couldn’t think for myself, as I did before. I had so many people telling me what to think or how to feel. So I began talking with a good church friend about my complications. He told me something that I would never forget; “Just because we are Christians, doesn’t mean that we should be close minded to other possibilities in life. Some things we will not understand and not meant to understand.”
Taking this philosophy, I began to make to see things in a 3D world, instead of the 1D I was so used too. I became a moderate. Instead of having the church or the media tell me how I feel about an issue, I now look at it for myself, see who it affects, and listen on both sides of the window.

Abortion, for example, isn’t something I personally agree with but also understand that women should have the rights to choose, due to any unforeseen consequences that may occur in her life. However, I believe these rights should be limited. The women shouldn’t be able to have an abortion after so many weeks, should be counsel on the consequences of having an abortion, and also should be shown alternate ways around abortion. Even though I am against abortion, I still have a belief that the women should be the ultimate deciding factor with limitations.
Compromise is the meaning of being a moderate to me. We have to find middle ground on any issue that may come up. Does this mean that you have to give up on your moral stance, no, it just mean that a issue isn’t as clear cut as we once thought it was. When I choose a political party, I begin to close door on other peoples opinions and feelings. Until I run for president of the United States this is my stance and I'm sticking to it.

Answer 2

The second sentence is not a sentence. Try this instead:

The word “moderate” can take on many forms, for example you may say that a there are a moderate amount of ingredients in a certian food and or you paid a moderate price for certain clothes.

Instead of "being political" I would say "politics".

Take the S off the word Means in the 5th sentence.

No comma between "issues" and "and", the "and" separates the thoughts by itself.

Again the comma.

Put the verb in the first clause of the last sentence, and put an S on the word mean:

Say "A few feel, as I do, that being moderate means"

Other than that it's fine.

I'm just capitalizing what I change cuz I don't know how else to show you. If it's a comment about something, it's in parenthesis.

(Not a bad little paragraph, but if it's supposed to be a full-on essay, you might to add a formal definition of the word, add examples of social conservatism, fiscal conservatism, and the opposites, and maybe even Google to find politicians who are described as moderates and research why. Also, don't forget that "moderate" is also a verb.)

Answer 8

A moderate is someone who buys into some of the core ideas of a particular party, but does not slavishly follow the party line.
My own political philosophy is all over the board; fiscally conservative, somewhat liberal on social issues, and totally libertarian on individual rights. Go figure.

Answer 9

In politics and religion, a moderate is an individual who holds an intermediate position between two extreme or radical viewpoints. The word "moderate" can also be used as an adjective describing such a position.

In politics, a moderate is an individual who holds the middle position between those generally classified as being [left-wing], liberal, or socialist and those seen as right-wing, conservative, or capitalist.
