Cultural 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.

This was an interesting little quiz that I found over at Orcinus. I would say it’s a fair representation of where I stand now. Five years ago, I am certain that I would have scored much higher in the Idealist category. It’s clear to me that I’m still being shaped by the world around me. Considering the forces in play, maybe the change is a negative.
The quiz creator was kind enough to post a list of category definitions to explain what each one means.
Hm… Also Cultural Creative, but look at the scores:
Existentialist88%
Cultural Creative 88%
Idealist 75%
Postmodernist 56%
Materialist 50%
Fundamentalist 44%
Modernist 13%
Romanticist 13%
Captcha is ‘floored’. Appropriate 
I can see the existentialist parts of both of you guys. But Dave! You are a study in contrasts, eh? It’s like two sides of you fighting for equal time. 
Hmmmmmmmmmm........
You scored as Romanticist.
Romanticism encourages society to look backwards to find our solutions. Your rationale is that things were much better a few hundred years ago so we should thus look back to those times and replace them in our modern society. You believe in a simple life and that the complexities of the modern world have turned it upside down.

Hmmm, I don’t get a passing grade on any of the views:
Cultural Creative 56%
Existentialist 50%
Postmodernist 50%
Fundamentalist 31%
Romanticist 31%
Modernist 25%
Materialist 25%
Idealist 13%
So, by default, I score as Cultural Creative.
Or perhaps I should say that that’s how I scored this time. So much of this quiz is dependent on how you interpret the questions, which affects how you answer. At other times, I’ve come out as Modernist or Postmodernist, though the scores on the dimensions are never very high.
Apropos of nothing, my captcha is “snape”.
What interesting peeks into your psyches, Cyn and N. Get us all around a table with a few beers and wouldn’t the conversation be fascinating?
N, I thought that, too, about the question interpretation, which may very well be dependent upon one’s particular mood at the time. (That’s the postmodernist in us?) Were any of your answers in the strongly agree or strongly disagree columns?
I’d be curious to see how PZ Myers and a Christian fundamentalist would score. I’d like to see the similarities and contrasts.
"It’s like two sides of you fighting for equal time.”
Story of my life.
I am a Cultural Creative too. I was when I took this last time, but I don’t remember how I scored before on the other aspects:
Cultural Creative 100%
Existentialist 88%
Postmodernist 63%
Idealist 56%
Materialist 38%
Romanticist 25%
Modernist 19%
Fundamentalist 6%
... and thar ya have it.

I did get a tiebreaker and I can honestly say the mood I was in at the moment determined how I answered it. Today just might be a different story. Maybe I should go back and take it again!!

Next entry: Simple workout
Previous entry: Wish I was a carpenter
When I took this quiz, I came out as an existentialist, which seemed about right to me.
