  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I scored as Divine Command.

Your life is directed by Divine Command: God and religion give you meaning and direction.
�Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations.�
--King James Version of the Bible
�Even as a tree has a single trunk but many branches and leaves, there is one religion--human religion--but any number of faiths.�
--Mahatma Gandhi

Divine Command 90%
Utilitarianism 70%
Existentialism 65%
Hedonism 55%
Kantianism 45%
Justice (Fairness) 30%
Nihilism 20%
Apathy 15%
Strong Egoism 5%

Wow, I've never been called an existentialist before. I guess it works okay given the options, but I'd have liked utilitarian better. At least I'm not one of those crazy hedonists!
:priest:

Did anyone else wander to the wiki page that the quiz links to? The quiz creator's life strikes me as kind of tragic- a probably brilliant mind crushed by anomie and intellectual stagnancy.

My...just think...how high our hedonism is, as christians........!!!!:p :cool:

Oh, nothing wrong with that, I'd think. Pleasures are pleasant, everything pleasant is a sin, but we have faith in the hope that God will forgive us our sins, and being forgiven then gives us double pleasure, and with all that pleasure we can concentrate on the love of our fellow human beings. So, it all adds up, doesn't it? :p :angel:
