Which Philosophy Do You Most Identify With?



Which philosopher are you?

Truth does not exist in some transcendent realm. We get to truth by applying reason to the physical world. The world follows logic and commonsense. Science if done properly is not too far from philosophy. 

Plato (strict rationalists)  81%  

W.v.O. Quine / Late Wittgenstein   60%

Early Wittgenstein / Positivists    46%

Immanuel Kant   41%  

Sartre/Camus (late existentialists)  34%


Nietzsche    7%

A deeply rational School of Thought, Platonism seeks to examine and explore above all else. Although we may not reach the answers in this life a Platonist believes they are still out there.

Which Philosopher Are You?    on Quizsocial 

You got: Avicenna

You have an intelligence that surprises everyone, even you sometimes. Like Avicenna (980-1037), you have a mind so open, you can sense possibilities before they become obvious. This ability probably gets you dirty looks from traditionalists, but you don't have time to worry about others' disapproval.
