BoyNeedsTherapy Posted June 3, 2005 Posted June 3, 2005 Since there's not much happening chapter wise atm I thought I'd post a little quiz to keep everyone occupied World View Quiz My results are:You scored as Existentialist. Existentialism emphasizes human capability. There is no greater power interfering with life and thus it is up to us to make things happen. Sometimes considered a negative and depressing world view, your optimism towards human accomplishment is immense. Mankind is condemned to be free and must accept the responsibility. Existentialist 75% Cultural Creative 63% Postmodernist 50% Romanticist 50% Materialist 44% Modernist 38% Fundamentalist 31% Idealist 25% Not quite sure what that says about me, but I think it's sort of true, I do believe that human beings should take responsibilty for themselves...

sat8997 Posted June 3, 2005 Posted June 3, 2005 I'm a Cultural Creative. Now I'll have to ponder on this. Cultural Creatives are probably the newest group to enter this realm. You are a modern thinker who tends to shy away from organized religion but still feels as if there is something greater than ourselves. You are very spiritual, even if you are not religious.

NaperVic Posted June 3, 2005 Posted June 3, 2005 I guess I'm a Materialist.... Some boys kiss me, some boys hug me, I think they're okay. If they don't give me proper credit, I just walk away. You scored as Materialist. Materialism stresses the essence of fundamental particles. Everything that exists is purely physical matter and there is no special force that holds life together. You believe that anything can be explained by breaking it up into its pieces. i.e. the big picture can be understood by its smaller elements.

lurker Posted June 3, 2005 Posted June 3, 2005 What surprises me is that I didn't score as high even on my top 'labels' as any of you did, and a number of you scored just as high or higher on categories that came in 2d or 3d. I guess I'm just disagreeable. Anyway, I tied as Cultural Creative and Idealist. My results: Cultural Creative - 69% Idealist - 69% Postmodernist - 56% Existentialist - 50% Modernist - 44% Materialist - 38% Romanticist - 31% Fundamentalist - 25%

Trebs Posted June 3, 2005 Posted June 3, 2005 You scored as Postmodernist. Postmodernism is the belief in complete open interpretation. You see the universe as a collection of information with varying ways of putting it together. There is no absolute truth for you; even the most hardened facts are open to interpretation. Meaning relies on context and even the language you use to describe things should be subject to analysis.
