More of the endless tests

Yes... Im bored.

Anyway these 3 tests were found at the same site as the Belief-O-Matic quiz. They are supposed to measure how competitive, forgiving and gratefull you are.

Competitive? http://beliefnet.com/features/olympics/quiz.html

Forgiving? http://beliefnet.com/section/quiz/index ... urveyID=61

Gratefull? http://beliefnet.com/section/quiz/index ... rveyID=105

-------

My results:

Apearently im not very gratefull at all, the test told me the following:
Basically you're in the bottom tenth of respondents. Gratitude is not your major focus right now; you may want to read our story on gratitude studies and see why being thankful could benefit you.

Rather suprising imo, But I blame it somewhat on that the one who made the test seem to be religous or something...

Concerning my forgiving nature I scored 40/60 wich makes me:
Balanced forgiver. You're a basically kind person with a sense of balance and boundaries. However, you're no Mother Theresa.

And finally on the competitive test I scored 7/100 first time, then as im not particularly interested in sports changed all my answers to fit online gameing instead, wich improved my score to 10... looks like im a Buddhist.

How Competitive Are You?

You scored 90, on a scale of 0 to 100. Here's how to interpret your score:
10 - 24
Conscientious objector against competition. You’re either not particularly interested in sports, or well-adjusted about sports, or a Buddhist.
25 - 49
Player. Winning isn't everything, but since it matters to society it matters to me.
50 - 75
Driven. Show me a good loser, and I'll show you a loser.
76 - 100
Hardcore competitive. Your blood pressure may become an issue as you age.
Time for more blood pressure pills.

10 - 24

Conscientious objector against competition. You’re either not particularly interested in sports, or well-adjusted about sports, or a Buddhist.

How Forgiving Are You?

You scored 35, on a scale of 0 to 60. Here's how to interpret your score:

0 - 20

Out for revenge. Though a thirst for justice can be admirable, your insistence on an 'eye for an eye' may be poisoning your relationships with others. Next time you have a chance to retaliate, let it pass. Discuss forgiveness with others like you.

21 - 40

Balanced forgiver. You're a basically kind person with a sense of balance and boundaries. However, you're no Mother Theresa. Discuss forgiveness with others like you.

41 - 60

Very merciful. Some people would call you a sucker, and some religions would call you a 'Holy Fool.' You're so merciful you may surprise others. Discuss forgiveness with others like you.

How Grateful Are You?

You scored 21, on a scale of 6 to 42. Here's how to interpret your score:

6 - 31

Basically you're in the bottom tenth of respondents. Gratitude is not your major focus right now; you may want to read our story on gratitude studies and see why being thankful could benefit you.

32 - 39

You're right smack in the middle--thankfully average with room for improvement. Why not share those things you're thankful for in our gratitude prayer circle.

40 - 42

Bless you! In the top third, you are going through life blessing everyone and everything. Keep up the good work. Check out the rest of our special Thanksgiving section.

Hmmm...how boring am I?? A bit worried about the answers for people scoring highly...

@Dottie and Ysh...lol!

I don't know if "sensible" is an adjective I would employ to describe myself......but if you insist....

Dottie · Post by **Dottie** » Mon Jul 08, 2002 5:08 pm

You can replace it with any other mildly positive and not too specific adjective if you feel its neccessary.

How about: 0-24 Really Bored -- You are, aren't you? You've either taken this test as a laugh, linking off another test that some other really bored person on a forum has posted, or you are a cyborg, and have no soul. Go away - we don't like to see your kind in here.
