According to QuizFarm You scored as Justice (Fairness). Your life is guided by the concept of Fair Justice: Everyone, yourself included, should be rewarded and punished according to the help or harm they cause.
"He who does not punish evil commands it to be done."
--Leonardo da Vinci
“Though force can protect in emergency, only justice, fairness, consideration and cooperation can finally lead men to the dawn of eternal peace.”
--Dwight D. Eisenhower Hilariously, I also had 65% Hedonism and Utilitarianism (tie). I scored 75% existentialism. How ironic, that I'm not even a complete existentialist. Wonder what that means....? Edit: Since everyone else is posting full results, here are mine: Justice (Fairness) 85% Existentialism 75% Hedonism 65% Utilitarianism 65% Kantianism 55% Apathy 40% Strong Egoism 35% Nihilism 25% Divine Command 5%

You scored as Divine Command.
Your life is directed by Divine Command: Your god and religion give you meaning and direction.
“Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations.” --King James Version of the Bible
“Even as a tree has a single trunk but many branches and leaves, there is one religion--human religion--but any number of faiths.” --Mahatma Gandhi Runner up: 85% Existentialism

Whoa. An existentialist Christian? voodoolily brain hurt. Kierkegaard and Dostoevsky would probably be considered the first Existentialists ("formally" at least).....Both were Christians. edit: Also, watch (or read) the Last Temptation of Christ. I'd be one of the Christians who actually appreciates that take on the subject.

You all need to learn how to enjoy yourselves more. I am apparently a Hedonist!  You scored as Hedonism. Your life is guided by the principles of Hedonism: You believe that pleasure is a great, or the greatest, good; and you try to enjoy life’s pleasures as much as you can. “Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we die!” Hedonism 80% Existentialism 80% Strong Egoism 65% Justice (Fairness) 65% Utilitarianism 50% Apathy 50% Nihilism 30% Kantianism 30% Divine Command 0% I think the numbers are a bit off though because my apathy score should probably be higher and my ego score a bit lower. edit - Pot is one of life's pleasures!

No surprise to me. Kind of intriguing I my second-most trait is tied between Hedonism and Utilitarianism. /snicker
================================= You scored as Existentialism. Your life is guided by the concept of Existentialism: You choose the meaning and purpose of your life.
“Man is condemned to be free; because once thrown into the world, he is responsible for everything he does.” “It is up to you to give [life] a meaning.” --Jean-Paul Sartre
“It is man's natural sickness to believe that he possesses the Truth.” --Blaise Pascal

Apparently I'm a Utilitarian, even though I've always considered myself an Egalitarian Hedonist.
You scored as Utilitarianism. Your life is guided by the principles of Utilitarianism: You seek the greatest good for the greatest number.
“The said truth is that it is the greatest happiness of the greatest number that is the measure of right and wrong.”
--Jeremy Bentham
“Whenever the general disposition of the people is such, that each individual regards those only of his interests which are selfish, and does not dwell on, or concern himself for, his share of the general interest, in such a state of things, good government is impossible.”
--John Stuart Mill

You scored as Strong Egoism.
Your life is very much guided by the concept of Egoism: You work primarily to promote your own interests.
“I swear by my life, and my love of it, that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine.” “I am not primarily an advocate of capitalism, but of egoism; and I am not primarily an advocate of egoism, but of reason. If one recognizes the supremacy of reason and applies it consistently, all the rest follows.” --Ayn Rand
Hedonism 100%
Strong Egoism 100%
Existentialism 75%
That's about right. However, Ayn Rand is still a douche.

I know! Obviously, I made an error and clicked something wrong and clicked everything wrong all the way down. I must have an ego, no? And I'm sure I can't be all that hedonistic. 85%! That's just silly. (although I have been considering having sex for bacon)

The fact that a healthy portion of you people are hedonists shouldn't really shock me I guess. The others seem to be justice.

Strange. My husband just resigned from his job because they tried to force him to take a "personal values" assessment and workshop. They asked him to rate, in order of importance, 28 personal values such as spirituality/religion and pleasure. He refused. They offered to let him fill out the paperwork offline and take it to the class and he refused that, too. When they told him that he wouldn't have show it to anyone or tell anyone what he had written he said that was silly... what would be the point? He believes that it is psychological profiling and inappropriate regarding employment. He offered to take part in the workshop without the personal assessment part of the paperwork but they insisted it must be written down even though he wouldn't have to show it to anyone. They said it would be impossible for him to remember how he rated 28 items, even though he keeps, in his memory, more than 50 passwords for their machines. They said if he didn't do it that his "career would be in jeopardy"... isn't that assult? They also told him they would put him on a 30 day non-paid suspension even though this sort of thing doesn't appear in his work contract. So... they want to starve us into compliance? Nice. So he quit.
Just for the record... nearly every person he spoke to at this company said if they filled out they form they would lie and just put what they thought the company would like to hear. The company is paying Blessing/White millions of dollars for this workshop... doesn't seem worth it, does it? Things like this are fine if it's optional but it really shouldn't be mandated.

Personal values? WTF does that mean? What kind of idiotic leadership at this company thinks paying money for that sort of shit is even worthwhile?
The only personal value that should be related to my job is the value I have for eating a meal bought with my paycheck every day.
