Quiz: Who is your favorite Philosopher?

I would like a Quiz showing who is my Favorite German Philosopher or Western Philosopher

I can't find a Quiz like that

And many ask for email and I will not give them one

I am an ISTP

And this was my Answer


You Are Lao-Tzu (INFP)

Your philosophy branch is Aesthetics. | Your famous book is Tao Te Ching. | The idea that resonates with you is achieving a state of Wu Wei, freedom from desire, an early staple tenet of Buddhist tradition after that. | You are a mediator. Just like Lao-Tzu, you believe in natural balance, freedom from desire, and peace of mind.

You also seem quiet, introverted, imaginative, caring, and creative. Here's how TheBestSchools.org describes Tzu, "A divine figure in traditional Chinese religions, his ideas and writings would form one of the major pillars (alongside Confucius and the Buddha) for Eastern thought. Lao-Tzu espoused an ideal life lived through the Dao or Tao (translated as "the way").

As such, Taoism is equally rooted in religion and philosophy." We also think that you would love this quote by Lao-Tzu, "Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength while loving someone deeply gives you courage."

My Answer

Your traits are closest to those of Epicurus.

Epicurus: Epicurus advised his followers to live simple lives. For example, their food and drink consisted mainly of bread and water, with cheese as a rare indulgence. Having been much misunderstood by posterity, Epicurus actually counseled that intense pleasures were to be avoided because they were often followed by pain – either from overindulgence or from losing access to the pleasures again. Likewise, Epicurus held that stronger and more uncommon pleasures would, at the same time, make common and less potent pleasures less pleasant, thereby robbing the man who indulges in the rarefied pleasures of the opportunity to enjoy a simple, quiet life.

I disagree with what he said about Food

So this Quiz is not Accurate

In my opinion

I'm not going to live on bread and water

That's Crazy

Me too

That's what I got

Wow

What if it asks a bunch of questions and just makes everyone Lao Tzu?

VOLTAIRE

Yea

Good point

I forget his first name but I know many other Philosophers have been trying to find him for ages. His last name is Stone, Philosopher Stone. Apparently he figured out eternal life, hopefully one day he will be found and we can learn all of his secrets, gold from dirt and such things.

All budding tyrannies like America kiil their philosophers.

They tend to get in the way of the tyranny.

I liked philosophy a lot as a kid till I wondered if they really believed what they are sustaining or they just verbally tied a concept so it is difficult to dispute? lol

The best for me is the Hobbes- Rousseau debate. You can converse for hours about both positions. Just brilliant
