personality types and atheism

[Doubting_Thomas]

Are certain personality types more likely to be atheist than others? More analytical ones... INTx for combos for example?

Post your Myer's Brigg's personality type (MBTI) and religious views.


If you do not already know your type, this test is pretty decent i think (although I hate the types of questions, I scored the same profile as I have previously got with professionally administered tests). And it's free; http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/JTypes2.asp





I am an INTP, and an atheist. Atheism is a no-brainer really.

Not to be a wet blanket, but Personality Types are kinda bunk.

16 types is not enough to categorize everyone on the planet.

I'll play. I'm an INFP, and I'm an atheist.

Generally, I find that theists are assholes.

I'll have to disagree. Maybe you expect too much from people.

Nope, Min just doesn't like people on his lawn.

Maybe these aren't worth a lot, but they can probably give an overall picture. This particular personality test is one that some professionals use.
Anyway, for fun, why not? (plus I've taken this one before)

I'm INFJ. I don't particularly like that I'm judging over perceiving, but there it is. Also INFJ is the rarest of all the combinations, according to that site. Weird.

People almost always disappoint!

Professionals are starting to use it to judge potential workers - that's not a very good way to hire people, in my opinion.

I agree.
