Title: Morals Test
Post by: Whitney on August 03, 2006, 01:27:18 AM
From the same site as the personality test:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/humanbody/ ... ys/morals/ (http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/humanbody/mind/surveys/morals/)


I scored a 40 :)

QuoteYour score puts you in the highest category of social reasoning. You will see ethical and moral values as important to the needs of society and will appeal to basic rights or values. You might say "Honesty is a standard which everyone should accept" or "Life is sacred."

Conformity to ethical norms is important to you, in terms of a responsibility, obligation or commitment for all individuals, although you may be willing to consider exceptions in some particular circumstances. You are likely to suggest that with entitlement or privilege comes responsibility.

You will appeal to considerations of responsible character or integrity in others, preferring a consistent or standard practice of behaviour in order to avoid damage to social institutions such as the legal system.

However, you will want to see an adjusted case-by-case application of standards for the sake of fairness to all people. Lastly, you are very likely to appeal to standards of individual or personal conscience, as well as of honour, dignity or integrity.

See your inner Mach.

I scored an 88 percent on it. I've always been quite the mach.

QuoteThe Machiavelli personality test has a range of 0-100
Your Machiavelli score is: 88
You are a high Mach, you endorse Machiavelli's opinions.
Most people fall somewhere in the middle, but there's a significant minority at either extreme.

Your Machiavelli score is: 56
You are a low Mach, you reject Machiavelli's opinions.

Well, we all appear to be terribly moral. :)

I thought the morals test was a good one to have listed on the forum to help combat the idea that atheists are immoral.  Yet, someone who really thinks we are immoral would just say we lied about our scores.

Eh, I consider myself more or less amoral on the whole. The more I read about The Prince and Machaivelli, the more I realize I used to have those thoughts ever since I was a kid.

I scored 37.5 out of 44

As I said before, according to these tests, I am a realist.

I still think that this is part of the evil atheist/satanic conspiracy designed to infiltrate and control our lives by their insidious, seemingly innocent probings.   I got this from squid, by the way.  

Am I paranoid, or are you really out to get me?
