Random Quote
Here and there in the midst of American society you meet with men full of a fanatical and almost wild spirtualism, which hardly exists in Europe. From time to time strange sects arise which endeavor to strike out extraordinary paths to eternal happiness. Religious insanity is very common in the United States.
[Alexis de Tocqueville, mid 19th century]

Hmm. Apparently I'm Angelic. That'll surprise a few people I know...
Posted by: Ichthyic | December 10, 2006 6:17 AM
"Which of the following European countries is your favorite, or with which do you most closely identify?"
one of the answers is Canada?
LOL.
maybe this is also a test of general intelligence?
Posted by: Ichthyic | December 10, 2006 6:22 AM
uh, OK, i finished at 100% Pure Evil:
How evil are you?
...and I wasn't even trying. I bet saying I thought being a lawyer was a good thing counted toward mucho evilness.
oops.
Posted by: Ichthyic | December 10, 2006 6:26 AM
blew the link too somehow; must be my evilness leaking through to my coding...

"Hmm. Apparently I'm Angelic."
Same here.
BTW, I noticed Canada was listed as a "European" country. I suspect that probably is a joke.
Posted by: Dianne | December 10, 2006 7:54 AM
I'm a wishy-washy "good." Probably shouldn't have listed "lawyer" as my ideal job. But they didn't give "mad scientist" (my actual and ideal job) as an option.
Posted by: Graculus | December 10, 2006 8:31 AM
BTW, I noticed Canada was listed as a "European" country.
It's also listed as a "Favorite Weapon".
I know sometimes it's hard to tell humour from stupidity on the web, but I think we can safely assign this one to humour.
Pure Evil, and I am not a lawyer. But I am Canandian.

You're just using this to get more votes.
Phil is far more evil than thou. >;)

Here is a Xmas song that will undoubtedly please such an evil person, "Christmas Time in Hell".

I myself was only "twisted".
Posted by: Maggie Rosethorn | December 10, 2006 9:20 AM
Hmmm...well, I'm "good". Guess I don't watch the right kind of movies or something (but they didn't offer a choice of "what's a movie" since I'd rather read a good book any day...)
Posted by: rjb | December 10, 2006 9:41 AM
I came up as "pure evil" also, even though I wasn't trying!! Just out of curiousity, I went back and changed one answer... changed the type of browser that I'm using from IE to Firefox, and that dropped my evil score to "mostly evil."
So, I guess if you bow to the spawn of Bill Gates, well, you're as evil as can be.
Posted by: Evolving Squid | December 10, 2006 9:43 AM
How evil are you?
Apparently you still require training.
Posted by: Cathy in Seattle | December 10, 2006 9:46 AM
I'm "Neutral."
Posted by: bPer | December 10, 2006 9:51 AM
Good?
{hangs head in shame and sighs}
Oh well, could be worse. It could have been 'nice'.
I blame it on the Canada fixation this test has. Everybody knows we're good. It's the cross we bear.
Posted by: xebecs | December 10, 2006 10:01 AM
Do not despair, oh ye lawyers.
I am rated 100% angelic, and I too chose lawyer as the best of a bad lot of choices.
I suspect the damn thing is pretty much random, or else broken.
As for Canada, if the United State could be part of NATO, SEATO, etc. all at the same time, I expect Canada can be part of Europe.

My result.
It's discrimination, I tell you! Discrimination against people with hamsters in their heads!
Posted by: Boosterz | December 10, 2006 10:56 AM
100% pure evil. Take that PZ. :-)
*pinky to lip*
Posted by: remy | December 10, 2006 11:08 AM
I never thought of myself as living in a weapon. Kinda like the idea. I would like to smite some other countries. If Canada were a weapon what would it be?
Posted by: Pat | December 10, 2006 11:40 AM
How the hell did I freakin' end up as "Angelic?"
Posted by: A Teapot | December 10, 2006 11:55 AM
How evil are you?
Should I have answered 'Canada' more?
Posted by: theophylact | December 10, 2006 12:41 PM
"Angelic"? Moi?
Posted by: TAW | December 10, 2006 2:20 PM
"Aaaah! you are one creepy soul."
PZ- "I don't HAVE a soul. MWUAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!"
Posted by: BigHeathenMike | December 10, 2006 2:45 PM
I was 78% evil. Apparently, my friends are both scared of and for me.
Posted by: An Enquiring Mind | December 10, 2006 3:55 PM
I'm merely Twisted. Mere cosmic cowinky dink due no doubt to a hangover from my Twisted Sister phase during the 80s? That makes it all seem worthwhile now:)
Posted by: anomalous4 | December 10, 2006 3:58 PM
I came out "neutral." Actually, I prefer one of my friends' take on it. In her apartment she has a sign saying:
333. I'M ONLY HALF EVIL.
Posted by: Tukla in Iowa | December 10, 2006 6:09 PM
Hmph! I had to pick "Actor" as an ideal profession since "Layabout" wasn't an option.
Posted by: A,Y, | December 10, 2006 6:45 PM
What the hell? Supposedly, I'm 100% Angelic ergo 0% Evil.
Posted by: konagod | December 10, 2006 6:50 PM
That was mine too.
We're two evil peas in a pod.

Come on, PZ, fess up: you're secretly running a PC with MSIE in a locked attic room, aren't you?
Posted by: afterthought | December 10, 2006 9:10 PM
Cool, I'm twisted. I aways thought so.
Posted by: frank | December 10, 2006 10:51 PM
I answered the same way twice, and was evil the first time and good the second. This test seems about as predictive as intelligent design.

As for Canada being a weapon, McArthur (the odd chap who ruled us during world war two) described Australia as being an unsinkable aircraft carrier.
Posted by: Keith Douglas | December 12, 2006 12:24 PM
I guess that makes Canada a large and hard to bomb base, Ronald Brak. (There are co-run installations here, some legacy from the cold war.)
