I found this old link on my computer that still works yet. It tests your gullibility to see if you think for yourself, or let the others do it for you. The quiz does not ask for any personal information or emails (that in itself would prove one is gullible IMO

) but it directly scores 33 questions.http://www.naturalnews.com/gullibility.htmlI'm not expecting anyone to share their scores publicly, but I'll share mine just to turn the screw a quarter turn into my uninformed critics that said to the effect "I probably inherited my beliefs...." (as if to say I'm mindlessly brainwashed into a cult or something). No, I thought them out very carefully.

Your GF score is 88.(Out of a range of 0 - 100, where 0 = mind slave, and 100 = free thinker.)Free ThinkerWelcome to the top 5%. You're a true free thinker and a person who is well informed about the reality in which you live. Although you may have been easily manipulated earlier in life, you eventually gained lucidity and developed a healthy sense of skepticism that you now automatically apply to your observations and experiences. You are endlessly curious about human behavior and the nature of the universe, and you have one or more lifestyle habits that most people would consider odd or unusual. You are not only of very high intelligence, you are also extremely creative in one or more areas (music, art, software development, inventing, etc.)If you were in The Matrix, you would have taken the red pill, completed the combat training, and started fighting (and beating) agents from day one.

That's still a good score. Some that I got wrong was because I never heard of the stuff. For example, feeding cattle blood and animal waste, etc. I thought that was something asked to throw a curve ball. One can be a conformist rebel and believe false, weird stuff just to be the opposite (which is really a negative conformist). The reason I did not believe they fed cattle that wasn't because I did not think that this was possible on their part, but rather since cattle are herbivores that the cattle would be smart enough not to eat it. They must really mix that stuff into the cattle feed well. OK--- I gave away one answer for everyone to get right.

Interesting link Tim. It still amazes me how many people are unaware of the things in that questionnaire :eek:

Your architects: You have cast off reality distortions taught to you by your parents, schooling, corporate advertising and government propaganda. You create your own beliefs based on what serves you best, without much regard for what the rest of the crowd is doing. You are guided by your own internal code of ethics (which may or may not agree with politically-correct ethical codes) rather than any pre-set system of ethics (such as from any one religion).
I must say that as a Christian, I would reword that last phrase. Clearly, it is from an atheist perspective. My internal code of ethics is that of God's word and is in harmony with using intellect to uncover common societal misconceptions since many of the issues in society today are obviously unbiblical.
