Aquinas 100% !!? This is a very strange result. I don't think that God has so much influence on us. Bad quiz?
 
Aquinas?

1. Aquinas (100%)
2. Spinoza (82%)
3. John Stuart Mill (80%)
4. Aristotle (77%)
5. St. Augustine (73%)
6. Jeremy Bentham (58%)
7. Plato (57%)
8. Jean-Paul Sartre (56%)
9. Epicureans (53%)
10. Kant (53%)
11. Nel Noddings (53%)
12. Prescriptivism (47%)
13. Stoics (46%)
14. Ayn Rand (39%)
15. Nietzsche (35%)
16. David Hume (29%)
17. Ockham (19%)
18. Cynics (11%)
19. Thomas Hobbes (11%)


I do wonder about the Aquinas part, as well. Specifically on the issue of God. According to the rhetoric of the quiz, I could not and therefore did not acknowledge God in any answer.

Also I noticed Camus hasn't appeared in anyone's result. I'm not sure whether this is significant.

(It would appear that the survey selects from a relatively small list of 21 or so philosophers and schools. See http://www.selectsmart.com/PHILOSOPHY/description.html)

Epicureans, hmm, so what's wrong with enjoying life? Two of my favorite lines are:
"Everything in excess! Moderation is for monks!"
and
"Too much of a good thing is wonderful!"

I can't remember who said them, though. I think Mae West was one of them. May have even been both.
 
That's not Epicurus, though. That's just the way the term is misued in modern English.

"Nothing is enough for the man to whom enough is too little."

That's Epicurus.

Oh, and ...

Prescriptivism and Ockham seem to be noticeably unpopular choices.

I don't understand how my three most similar philosophers can be the Stoics (theist), Aquinas (theist), and Sartre (atheist).
 
My "score" as it could be called is:
1. Spinoza (100%)
2. John Stuart Mill (94%)
3. Kant (91%)
4. Aquinas (88%)
5. Ayn Rand (84%)
