If you could talk with only one person for the rest of your life, who would it be?

That guy who sits behind that desk at Google and answers all of my inane trivia questions.

"I am a good person because I know what good people are supposed to act like, and I copy them." — To what extent can you relate to this quote? Elaborate, please.

That quote assumes good and evil are moral absolutes dependent on social hierarchies. Parroting off moral norms is a one-way ticket to collectivist hell.
In short, I do not relate to this at all.

Have you ever had a moment where it felt like you couldn't go on with life as you were living it? What changed to keep you going?

I had a rather difficult transition into community college during my first semester. It was the first time I had ever been exposed to a classroom environment or people in general and barely knew how to communicate who I was to others, much less to myself. There was a large part of me that wanted to do nothing but hide away from the world where I thought I belonged.
In the end, I kept going only because my life has been little more than a collection of curiosities that got me farther than I thought I ever would. I harbor a very cynical view of the world, but as incorrect as I often am about it, that alone makes me interested in being proven wrong. That extends to life being better.

There are some people who seek for attention to gain popularity on social media, especially on facebook, and then try to degrade others. Why do they do that?

To validate their lifestyles, invalidate their insecurities, to expand their cruelty's platform, or run for president.

Has a dream about someone you know ever changed your opinion of that person for better or worse?

I dreamed that @RarusVoluntas wrote a "Ten Times Jaden Smith Blew Our Minds" list. I awoke in a cold sweat and cursed that last piece of pizza I ate.

I'll be going to a state university in a week, and since I haven't had much exposure to large social crowds outside a Christian environment, I'm a little nervous. Do you have any advice for me on how to communicate my faith in a respectable way and stand up for my beliefs without making enemies?

I was raised with the belief that God could only thrive in a willing heart. Even as an atheist, I still believe that. Whatever concept of the Christian God you believe in, I assume it depends on exactly what you describe –faith.
Faith cannot be argued or proven. Faith is shared through example. Show people who want to live as you do why it should matter –to you and to them. I not a religious bone in my body, but faiths that generate sympathetic interactions, empathy, and unity should always be welcome.
Keep in mind that if you want to share your faith with others, know that they have a right to share their beliefs with you. Change someone and they may change you.

What would you do if you lived in Narnia? Would you be a human or a talking animal?

I would be Prince Caspian and I would forfeit my throne and call for democratic elections, which would result in a single-payer healthcare system and free college for all.

How would you define a kindred spirit, and what traits would one have to be your kindred spirit?

Pizza with philosophy, social justice, artistic criticism, video games, and a love of the outdoors on top.

What’s the scariest dream you have ever had?

I woke up in my very own bed to the sound of Darth Maul clearing his throat to sing to me. I woke up before I knew how much he could belt out.

Is the perfect crime one no one ever finds out about, one that can't be solved, or one that gets blamed on someone else?

I would think most criminals are the kinds of narcissists who derive great pleasure from their misdeeds. I imagine most have a great subconscious urge to flaunt their crimes so long as they can't result in a conviction. The best criminals are performers who demand an audience, though they never wish to be removed from the stage, as our president-elect would illustrate.

Would you say that you take excellent care of your health or do you tend to neglect it? Why?

I can't say that I go to great lengths to protect my health any more than the average American nor do I go out of my way to destroy it. I walk plenty and read enough to keep myself on my feet and thinking. I do, however, consume the average amount of pizza expected of a twenty-something millennial and the number of fat and carbs that should imply.
I can say that the ferment fifteen is real –I've probably gained a good eighteen to nineteen pounds myself in the past few years of college. I could blame higher education for too much good eats.
