existentialist?

I have no idea if this is correct or not, but it's sort of oddly interesting. Although I took the Myers-Briggs yesterday and found myself an INFJ, which according to Kiersey's Temperament Sorter is in the "idealist" category. Oddly enough, I score only 13% for "idealist" on this one, but who knows if they're even referring to something remotely comparable. Not that any of this means anything -- don't worry...



You scored as Existentialist. Existentialism emphasizes human capability. There is no greater power interfering with life and thus it is up to us to make things happen. Sometimes considered a negative and depressing world view, your optimism towards human accomplishment is immense. Mankind is condemned to be free and must accept the responsibility.

I'd rather be an existentialist.

Postmodernism is the belief in complete open interpretation. You see the universe as a collection of information with varying ways of putting it together. There is no absolute truth for you; even the most hardened facts are open to interpretation. Meaning relies on context and even the language you use to describe things should be subject to analysis.

HA! I never knew I was creative.

You scored as Cultural Creative.

Cultural Creatives are probably the newest group to enter this realm. You are a modern thinker who tends to shy away from organized religion but still feels as if there is something greater than ourselves. You are very spiritual, even if you are not religious. Life has a meaning outside of the rational.

On half the questions I had that scene from "I Heart Huckabees" going through my head:

She: "You just can't handle my infinite nature."

He: "Sure I can... What does that even mean?!"

Anyway, I'm Cultural Creative also...
