I so rarely do online quizzes, but this one caught my eye.  It has questions like: “Morals are socially constructed” and “Man is condemned to be free.” Agree or disagree? How much?

So I took it, and it told me I was an existentialist.  Which is fairly true, though there’s strong Taoist tendencies in me.  Perhaps I swayed a bit because I just finished reading Ayn Rand’s “The Fountainhead.”

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. Man is condemned to be free and must accept the responsibility.

What's my worldview?



I'm glad you asked.



The world needs a new religion that balances the ideals of matriarchy and patriarchy with science.



Simple.
