Gullible or Free-Thinker?

Got this from Ariel’s blog: the Gullibility Factor Test at newstarget.com. You just answer True or False questions and they tabulate your score at the end, with explanation and correct answers. They will then tell you whether you are a free-thinking individual, or a total mind slave.

I am such a  sucker for quizzes so I took it. I got a score of 61, and like Ariel, I am a Learner:
~~~~~~~~~~~
Learner
As a Learner, you’re smart enough to know better, yet you’re still not fully informed about reality. Around 15% of the population are Learners. You have the critical thinking skills to be a truly free individual, but you haven’t exercised them enough yet. From time to time, you’re still manipulated by the powers that be, although you frequently learn from those mistakes and refuse to be exploited again. You buy things because they are practical, not because they’re cool.
If you were in The Matrix, you would have taken the red pill, but you would still be in a state of mild disbelief about the nature of reality. You are essentially unplugged, but still untrained. With more knowledge, you could become a true free thinker.

Your architects: You have always been an independent thinker. You rebelled against your parents, schoolteachers and always chose to hang out with smart friends who weren’t necessarily that popular to the “in” crowd. Increasingly, you shape your own world by deciding what actions to take based on your own internal drive rather than what society tells you is right.

Action steps: Learn more. Educate yourself through alternative media and cutting-edge books.

In some aspects, I agree. I am a Learner, and I am hungry for knowledge and information. The recent tasks I had to do for my job made me into a sponge absorbing everything as much as I can, I can as soon as I can. I did not rebel against my parents (well, maybe before, but not outright and only in some small ways like most teenagers). I did not feel the urge to hang around the “in” crowd, I made my own.

A little warning though, people should not accept all that is said in quizzes such as these. We need to think for ourselves and decide the path we are going to take, not only because some quiz tells us so.
