What philosophy do you follow? (Quiz)

A fun little quiz I found online. It seemed pretty accurate to me as it said I was an existentialist and a hedonist. What did you score and how accurate is it for you?

Sorry,
Don't see a link to the quiz, but I lean towards the agnostic.

Whoops, I'm a little sleepy.

Your life is guided by the ethical model of Kantianism: You seek to have consistent laws rule your actions, and your will is directed by reason. "I do not, therefore, need any penetrating acuteness to see what I have to do in order that my volition be morally good. Inexperienced in the course of the world, incapable of being prepared for whatever might come to pass in it, I ask myself only: can you also will that your maxim become a universal law?" --Immanuel Kant More info at Arocoun's Wikipedia User Page...

Here's my results.

Your life is guided by the principles of Utilitarianism: You seek the greatest good for the greatest number. “The said truth is that it is the greatest happiness of the greatest number that is the measure of right and wrong.” --Jeremy Bentham “Whenever the general disposition of the people is such, that each individual regards those only of his interests which are selfish, and does not dwell on, or concern himself for, his share of the general interest, in such a state of things, good government is impossible.” --John Stuart Mill

Lol there are quite alot of hedonists on here.
Could that be saying something about ATS users?

Yup....another one!

My answers were quickly done by not thinking but rather 'feeling' for the answers between 'Disagree' and 'Agree'.
