The Beginner's Philosophy Triangle Test
Semi-Subjectivism
Oh, so close. This test was unable to detect a major trend, but you aren't a Scatterbrains. This is because your results are limited to two philosophical influences, Objectivism and Subjectivism. Subjectivism holds that:
Metaphysics: Reality exists only in the mind. - I think, therefore I am.
Epistomology: Knoweldge is generated in the mind without reference to reality. - There is no absolute truth.
Ethics: Values are subjective. - There is no good and bad, except what people think is good and bad.
Politics: Usually leftist, but ranging from communism to anarchy to absolute democracy (pirate ship politics). - The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.
And Objectivism holds that:
Metaphysics: Reality exists independent from consciousness. - Existence exists, facts are facts.
Epistomology: Human beings can gain objective knoweldge from perception through concept formation. - Reason is man's means of survival, success, and knowledge.
Ethics: The proper moral purpose of one's life is the pursuit of one's own happiness or rational self-interest. - Man is an end in himself.
Politics: The only social system consistent with this morality is full respect for individual rights, embodied in pure, consensual laissez-faire capitalism. - Give me liberty, or give me death.
The only thing this test is sure of is that you aren't an Intrinsicist. The remaining options are many:
- You could be a budding objectivist, and your desire to give socially desirable answers is keeping you from answering as such.
- You could be a real subjectivist, and some of my questions are simply biased towards Objectivism.
- Your answers do actually follow a consistent train of logic I have failed to account for: let me know which questions you think may have been a problem, so my test can improve.
Your power animal is the: Wolf
Wolves are dangerous pack hunters, but can survive as individuals as well if they learn to assess their surroundings. More free-spirited and wild than the Dog (no shit, right?).
