Are your logical stances/conclusions at odds with your actual feelings on the matter? For example, I'm anti-death penalty because of things like past mistakes and all that but that doesn't mean I don't feel like some people deserve to die. Just something I was thinking about today.

Hmm, not many!  I probably have the most internal contradiction over abortion, although I doubt I'll reverse my position.

I don't really know, but I think I have several.

abortion-I don't like it, but I don't think it should be illegal either
prostitution-I don't like it, but I think it should be legal
heavy drugs-I don't like them, but I think they should be legal

My political opinions on drug legalization are pretty much completely opposed to my personal opinions on drugs, for sure.

Guns. I just don't like guns. There seems to be a reasonable amount of evidence, though, that increased gun ownership does not decrease safety.

I don't like drugs, abortion, prostitution and so forth but I don't think it should be illegal.

Seems like I'm creating an echo, but drugs, prostitution, and so on

Many issues, especially the death penelty. I am morally opposed to it, but support it politically. Meaning I do not believe it right for the state to use it, but I do believe that the state must have it. So sort of the opposite of White_Ghost.

And I am far more socially conservative in personal sentiment than I am politically. As I once noted that I am not morally opposed to prohibition, but I certainly do not take that as my political position. Not to mention I would probably not be morally opposed to cleaning up the smut out here on the interwebs, but my political philosohpy would never let me support such a thing.

My head's spinning from the wording, but let's see...

I personally believe that you should have to prove yourself competent to vote, but I could never actually see myself supporting any method to keep people from voting.
