So I'm a lurker finally posting something. :hi:
Upon being introduced to the Enneagram I was initially skeptical. MBTI seems a lot like astrology* to me sometimes, and I was worried this system might be sadly lacking in the empirical evidence department as well. But Enneagram makes a lot of sense and seems to lack the vagueness of astrology and MBTI**. It also has a sort of simple elegance to it that leads me to prefer it over socionics, which I don't fully understand yet.
What I want in this thread is your take on this:
Do you think the Enneagram system is scientific? Is it important for Enneagram to be scientific?
(I'm not making a poll because I want to know why.)
*ie bullshit
**that I've seen. It's possible I've managed to only find bad descriptions.
