Your Score: The Empiricist

You scored 91% Materialism, 69% Objectivity, and 14% Dialectics

You have a tendency to accept "facts" as the ultimate knowledge, which gives you an advantage over many, but leaves you a bit helpless under certain circumstances. That is, you are doubtful about whether Man can truly understand the laws the determine the movement of matter, and you have the habit of looking at things in isolation, rather than in their interconnectedness. Chances are you also view things in terms of rigid catagories--This is X, this is Y, and that is that. Unfortunately, nature doesn't work that way--things move from one catagory to another, and even the catagories change; what is radical is one generation is conservative the next; what is a cause now is an affect later. This leaves you confused on a lot of issues. You still have a big advantage over those who attribute everything to God, or who just think it's all a matter of opinion. Many Empiricsts have performed valuable work in the sciences, collecting data. Their ability to interpret those data often leaves something to be desired.
