I gladly contradict myself and therefore do not in order to tell you that you're objectively insufferable.

Questioning is for the INFP. Wait, you are not INFP? I am confused.

When you "force it so," it reeks of Anti-Philosophical tendencies.

"Anti-philosophy is talking aloud about it: philosophy is dead!"

Surely you can appreciate the irony too.

We should talk about the last wordiness of contradiction.

Okay...I see that the argument has swerved a little from philosophy to kindergarten games...

First of all, the NT types are NOT the only ones who enjoy philosophy, I gobbled it up in high school!!!

And as to the ENFPs only being concerned with having fun...try explaning my 4.0 gpa then... :rolli:

My "philosophy" (LOL) is that ENFPs lack the objectivity necessary to analyze life for what it really is.

I don't think I used the word "philosophy" in place of the word "opinion," like your mocking remark would imply. I was using a sort of secondary definition of the term that I think fits fairly well: "a philosophical attitude, as one of composure and calm in the presence of troubles or annoyances."

But that's neither here nor there- would you please tell me what life really is?

I'm so disillusioned. Here I was, thinking I was capable of analyzing life, but now I see that I and the other 300,000,000 of my type lack this ability. Absurd.

I think most N types would enjoy philosophy...INTP's are just the only ones stupid enough to pursue it as a career.

Almost every INTx I know is interested in philosophy, if not obsessed with it.
