another Optimist: 2 optimism, 3 faith, 16 logic... so how am I an optimist? And I don't understand my faith score either.

horrible test......If possible, I would've voted "other" on half or more of the questions.

Optimist

3 optimism, 4 faith, and 13 logic!

Optimists are a dying breed in this day and age. To the optimists, the world is a positive place. Everything is inherently good, and all things will work out in the end. They believe violence will one day be replaced with logic and reason, and that all religions can coexisist peacefully. These are the people who always see the glass half full, and believe that we live in the best possible world.

^and I don't agree with any of that, including the ludicrous claim that optimists are a dying breed.



# You scored 3 on optimism, higher than 15% of your peers.
# You scored 4 on faith, higher than 39% of your peers.
# You scored 13 on logic, higher than 76% of your peers.

Rationalist

10 optimism, -3 faith, and 14 logic!

Rationalism is the most scientific of the philosophies. No matter how bizarre something may seem, rationalists will always discount the supernatural. To them, there is no such thing as a mystical, otherworldly explanation for anything, no exceptions. Everything, no matter how strange, can be proven through science sooner or later. If something is genuine, there is an explanation for it.


Now, that is the correct Faith score for me.

The opposite of Rationalism is Existentialism.

I disagree with this. As did my answers.

Upon reviewing this now, I see that those who had high logic scores were differentiated into either optimist or rationalist by the faith score. So someone deemed to be a rationalist could have a higher optimism score and lower logic score than an optimist but still be rationalist by virtue of a 0 or negative faith score. If the faith score was 1 or greater, then optimist instead of rationalist even if the optimism score was low and the logic was high. Stupid test.

Am I the only one who finds it odd that as an ENFP Ive scored as a rationalist? i thought those T people had that market cornered :)

I guess it could explain my 7w8

It said Spiritualist, but I'm not sure... I like to think I'm too open minded to say "I'm right, regardless of factual information."

I took it twice, and I came up with Existentialist first and Optimist second; while both fit to a degree, I think the latter is a more accurate dipiction (I crossed out what doesn't fit).

Optimist
61 optimism, 68 faith, and 73 logic!

Existentialist

No matter how great our achievements may be, in the end, they're completely meaningless. But like Sisyphus, we should continue living our meaningless lives, in order to defy whatever force is punishing us.

eh, it's pretty accurate for me, though i'm not sure if optimism is a philosophical stance.
