Someone remind me what Nihilism is again?

Are you kidding?

4.   Philosophy.
a.   an extreme form of skepticism: the denial of all real existence or the possibility of an objective basis for truth.
b.   nothingness or nonexistence.

[One two three]

You scored as Existentialism.     
Edit: Only me and BEB are Existentialists? I thought it would be more common than that.

Yes, Egoism and Existentialism are very pro-freedom in general.  I know others are existentialist, like Kimsu and stuff, for example.

I've found that Hedonist, Nihilist, Utilitarianist, and Kantianist may also be pro-freedom.  You could even encourage a peron that agrees to Divine Command or Justice (whatever the fuck that is) into agreeing with freedom.  I guess you could do the same for someone with strong since of apathy but you would have to change them from well, apathy.

[Laetitia]

Existentialism, it is.

I'm not sure how I ended up with anything under Divine Command. Wonder about what I didn't agree/disagree strongly enough?

Existentialism 80%

Hedonism 70%

Utilitarianism 65%

Strong Egoism 65%

Justice (Fairness) 65%

Kantianism 60%

Nihilism 35%

Apathy 30%

Divine Command 5%

Most socialists I've talked to and gotten into philosophical discussions with have been pretty hardcore into Kant.

Many socialists are pro-government fascist asshats who are also pseudo-intellectuals. I'm sure they haven't REALLY thought about the things Kant had to say... considering the UNIVERSAL law angle.

I believe in what he has to say, simply becuase I believe that if something is to be moral, and then it could be willed to be universally so under any circumstance. Meaning that there would be VERY FEW things that could be deemed universal law.

A socialist would believe that ALL SORTS of things could be deemed into being a universal law. Hence my belief that socialists are gullible, shortsighted dummies.

I believe if you were to ask your friends to take this test, that they would score much higher as Utilitarians.

I'm rather surprised at the high percentage of people here with extremely high or even full hedonism scores.  Pleasure is important, sure, but not at the total expense of responsibility.  I'm guilty of succumbing to it more than I should (hence my vice of going out to eat and buying video games when I should be trying to pay off debts), but I don't think it's really a GOOD thing.  Moderation is important, too.

hrm... I wonder what the numbers would look like if we added the percentages of all the OTHER categories that people DIDN'T score as their top....

Like... the overall totals....

I wonder if Hedonism and Existentialism would still be in the same position... or if more people have one of the others higher as a secondary or tertiary path....


 

[aquabanianskakid]

I'm curious as well. Especially since several of us tied and had to pick one of the two.

You scored as Strong Egoism.     



Your life is very much guided by the concept of Egoism: You work primarily to promote your own interests.

"I swear by my life, and my love of it, that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine."
"I am not primarily an advocate of capitalism, but of egoism; and I am not primarily an advocate of egoism, but of reason. If one recognizes the supremacy of reason and applies it consistently, all the rest follows."
--Ayn Rand

There is no category for Objectivist, so it pigeon-holed me as a Hedonist. "Your life is guided by the principles of Hedonism: You believe that pleasure is a great, or the greatest, good; and you try to enjoy life?s pleasures as much as you can. 'Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we die!'?"
