These types of test come up every so often in political discussion, but usually I find them not to be particularly helpful as they focus to much on broad emotional responses and don't go into enough detail. For example this particular test includes a handful of questions on your views of homosexuality. Presumably answering that you "agree" that what happens between consenting adults is of no one else's concern, or that it can feel normal to be homosexual tilt you towards the libertarian side.

However, if you were to go more in depth and ask questions such as, "A baker does not have a right to refuse to bake a same sex wedding cake," or "A church that marries heterosexual couple is obligated to also marry homosexual couples" an agreeing answer should appropriately push you more authoritarian. But this test doesn't go that far and boils it down to, "If you don't actively dislike gays you're a libertarian," while ignoring that you absolutely can be authoritarian in your support of same sex couples.

That's not to say it's entirely unuseful but think about the greater line of thinking the questions are supposed to tap into and figure out for yourself where you stand. Take the actual results of the test of loaded questions with a grain a salt.

Well i scored a -.3 and a -.3 so i guess I'm damn near center but the questions you ask can be slated to get a certain response from the audience so as usually noted use with 2 grains of salt .

But there were a lot of questions that I either didn't care either way or didn't quite understand what was being asked/talked about.

1.1 to the right. -5.3 Libertarian.

I've taken this test several times. When I started I was along the line x=y and each time I've moved further right. Still as libertarian.
