test your gullibility

[parkerbink]

http://www.newstarget.com/gullibility.html

Your GF score is 85.
(Out of a range of 0 - 100, where 0 = mind slave, and 100 = free thinker.)

Mind slave Free thinker
0 (You) 100
Free Thinker
Welcome 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.

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).

All that link takes you to is a completed test that shows that you are a 0.

Somehow posting it changed it to have [url] in front & back. Works now.

Sorry

It told me I am a learner. I think that means i'm not cool.

So when do you start buying mind pyramids and asking us to join scientology?

Everyone of their "facts" is backed up by an article written by them which contains no actual cited references.

I agree. There's no verifying any of this stuff. That's why I never bought into conspiracy theories. There's just no basis for any of it. Everyone claims to know "facts" that were told to them by this guy, who knows a guy who works in this branch of the government, who's friend is in the CIA, and blah blah blah...

LOL, have you gone to NewsTarget.com? It describes itself as 'Daily news and commentary on natural health, wellness, planetary health, and medicine'

Complete BS. I'm sure they sell cherokee tampons too... and apparently have a cure for cancer:
'Nearly every indigenous culture has at least one cure for cancer, including the American Indians, Australian Aboriginees, Peruvian natives, and so on'

Now I'm pissed off I actually spent time filling out that test. The irony is that you're gullible if you believe the crap ('facts') they're selling

Abso-fucking-lutely. Couldn't have said it better myself.

[parkerbink]

I am not asking anyone to do anything, I just thought it was funny.

Got a good dialog going didn't it?

[NORCAL/E30]

Shit. Now that we've all read that the black helicopters are coming for us. I can hear them outside my home now. Thanks a lot Parker.

they should have the question: "there is a God."

i wonder what their correct answer for that would be.

[BimmerToad]

Lol, it did get a dialogue going...

After all, I should be relieved since there is an abundant source of fuel underneath the sea, in the form of gas hydrates :)

[AndrewBird]

I agree with a couple of those "correct" answers, but most of their resonings don't even make sense. Like a drop of mecury touching your skin will kill you. Bullshit. I've held murcury in my hand NUMEROUS times. It's poisonous like how lead is poisonous. It's vapors can easilly be inhailed and get into your blood stream that way. THAT is what kills you.

This all reminds me of that Ron White stand up where that guy is talking about how it is illigal to shoot a man in the back.

It's really easy to get "Free Thinker."

They are very wrong on inflation not being a sign of a healthy growing economy.

Not really, go read Road to Serfdom.
