Worldview Quiz

Quote:

Welcome to the Worldview Quiz sponsored by Reason for the Common Good. Take a few minutes to give it a try. The quiz covers two main areas: beliefs about how the world works, and opinions about what is important. It is meant to be thought-provoking, fun, and nothing like a scientific survey. For each of the 24 questions select the answer which most closely matches your view. When finished, click the Submit Answers button at the bottom of this page. After submitting answers you will see your results.

Here are my results:
Your rating on science vs. non-science: 8/10 (10 being completely pro-science)
Your rating on progress for humankind: 10/10 (10 being completely pro-progress)
Your position on the worldview spectrum: (10,8)

This plot shows predicted scores for various people (don't ask me how they got these predictions):

Just below and slightly left of Carl Sagan.

How they place the Dalai Lama that high on the science axis is beyond me.
