I got this:

MEMETIC SHOCK LEVEL 5 (0-4): Hyper-Enlightened. You are the most arrogant $%^& on the face of the Earth!

Yes, when I took the quiz I thought to myself: "this seems like a cross between transhumanism and Satanism". I have to wonder if the guy was influenced by Satanism.

These people seem like the lunatic fringe of the transhumanist movement. (Extropianism is an example of a much more rational part of that movement.)

Anyway, this "quiz" is clearly a statement of what the Transtopians really believe. My score is:

MEMETIC SHOCK LEVEL 02 (0-4): above-average. A mixed bag of genuine wisdom and deeply ingrained taboos & irrational hangups. The domain of either conservative or politically correct (armchair) philosophers and people who can't make up their frickin' minds (oh, and let's not forget the puerile LAMERS who hit 'score it' without changing/reading anything; you know who you are...). Limbo.

Oh no! I don't agree with them totally, so I have irrational hangups!
