while this isn't entirely off base, with more questions it would have landed differently...

Your Result: Plato (strict rationalists)

89%
There is a transcendent, absolute truth. We can get to this truth by pure reason, in the form of dialectic. Everyone wants truth. Truth is virtue, is happiness. Your philosophy might boil down to: You are right and those who disagree with you are wrong. (Note that there are many different conflicting interpretations of Plato's writings.) --This quiz was made by S. A-Lerer.

I'd word it ''I am not right and you, wrong. I believe my truth is more right because of this, this and that, while yours fails to explain them. Both of us could be wrong though, but my truth remains consistent with my questions.''

[Tengri]

Which ancient philosopher do you think like?
Your Result: Lao Tzu 88%
“A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.”
Legendary founder of Taoism. Lived about 550-470 B.C. Lao is said to have retired from the civilized world and to have set out for the unknown on a black ox. At the western pass of China, the legend goes, the gatekeeper asked him to write down his thoughts. Lao obligingly composed the Tao Te Ching, “The Book of the Way and the Virtue”. After writing this work, Lao vanished into the wilderness, never to be heard from again. Some scholars believe he is a mythical figure. His philosophy is based on the “Dao.”
According to Lao-tzu:
-We should just do what we need to live and be in harmony with nature and others.
-Happiness is found in this lifestyle of peace and harmony with others.
-Contemplation is one of the best ways to learn.
-Relax, be patient and accepting like water.
-People should be free and not compete with each other.
-There are gods and there is a soul.
-We must balance Yin and Yang.

Wouldn't say that. I don't believe in language as the limit of thought and perception. I thought I would get Kant tbh.

Which ancient philosopher do you think like?
Your Result: Aristotle

90%
A famous of Greek philosopher and scientist who lived about 384-322 B.C. He was one of Plato's best students at the Academy, but his views often differed from Plato's. He tutored Alexander the Great. He established his own school, the Lyceum. According to Aristotle: -A major purpose of life is reaching your potential. -The highest happiness is based on truth, virtue, contemplation, and philosophy. -Science/empiricism and rational deduction is the best way to learn truth. -We should live the Golden Mean(a balanced life), and excel morally and intellectually. -Government should be for the good of all people and be controlled by the middle class. -There is a “Prime Mover,” a divine, perfect Being responsible for the unity and purposefulness of nature. -The soul is part of the body. -All things consist of two parts: matter and form. -People develop into good or bad because of repeated choices that become habits. ...and many other ideas that can not be written here.

This is the other test (there are two tests in the link). It seems I agree with Aristotle on some things, not on others.

Okay, I retook it because that doesn't really align with my beliefs. The questions' wordings made me dither.

^ That's a little closer. I hold this weird contradiction in my head, believing in objective truth, but at the same time believing we're bound by perspective and neuronal circuitry in one way or another.
