How gullible are you?

Resurrecting an old sig of mine: "Come on, eat the baby," said the Devil. "Oh, just eat it. Come on, just eat the baby. No, it'll be fine. No, really, no one's gonna care. Come on, just eat the bab- FOOL! Bwa ha ha ha ha ha ha!" Man, I am so gullible.

edit: Oh, and 76. My sig lied to me!
 
85. It was more of a negativity test.. "false, false, false, false..."
 
70, a little unfair since most of the questions are really about real life political affairs or debates within the US.

"The history taught to American children in public school is true and accurate."
"The Federal Reserve is a branch of the U.S. government."
I'm Canadian, how the hell am I going to know these one way or another? In my opinion you can't be considered gullible if your decision is based purely on a guess.
 
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 GF score is 91.

Mind slave Free thinker

Free Thinker
Welcome to the top 5%. You're a true free thinker and a person who is well informed about the reality in which you live. Although you may have been easily manipulated earlier in life, you eventually gained lucidity and developed a healthy sense of skepticism that you now automatically apply to your observations and experiences. You are endlessly curious about human behavior and the nature of the universe, and you have one or more lifestyle habits that most people would consider odd or unusual. You are not only of very high intelligence, you are also extremely creative in one or more areas (music, art, software development, inventing, etc.)
If you were in The Matrix, you would have taken the red pill, completed the combat training, and started fighting (and beating) agents from day one.

Your architects: You have cast off reality distortions taught to you by your parents, schooling, corporate advertising and government propaganda. You create your own beliefs based on what serves you best, without much regard for what the rest of the crowd is doing. You are guided by your own internal code of ethics (which may or may not agree with politically-correct ethical codes) rather than any pre-set system of ethics (such as from any one religion).

Reading the little evaluation at the end, it's mostly just scaremongering to sell something. Ironic how the poll exists as an advertisement, when one of the questions was about advertising.

Many common grocery products (including yogurt, fruit drinks and candy) are colored with an ingredient called "carmine" that is actually made from insects: dead, ground up husks of female cochineal beetles.
TRUE. Just about every container of strawberry yogurt, for example, uses this insect-derived food coloring. Aside from the gross factor, carmine also poses the threat of causing a rare but fatal allergic reaction known as anaphylactic shock. See the CSPI warning on carmine to learn more.

Yes, it is made from insects. Yes, it can cause anaphylactic shock. But so can peanuts, and nickel.

There is no cure for cancer.
FALSE. There are, in fact, many proven cures for cancer used all around the world with excellent results. Nearly every indigenous culture has at least one cure for cancer, including the American Indians, Australian Aboriginees, Peruvian natives, and so on. The U.S. cancer industry simply doesn't want anyone to know cures exist because it profits from the management of cancer (i.e. dependence on drugs, chemo, radiation, etc.). Promotion of alternative cures would deprive the U.S. cancer establishment of its power and profits. This is also why today's cancer industry virtually ignores genuine cancer prevention and, instead, focuses on treatment (drugs and surgery). To learn the real story, read Dr. Samuel Epstein's new book Cancer-Gate, or visit the cancer page on NewsTarget.com.
Whoever made this little test should never have put a question like this on it. Even if there was a cure for cancer the fact is that you can't choose something that is so hotly debated as this. What happens if it is proven a few years down the line that at this time there really was no cure for cancer? Who is going to be the gullible one then?
 
Waste of time. I answered every one based on the tone of the question and came out 'welcome to the top 5%'.
 
Your GF score is 52.

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.
Half the questions were based on America, and how does the maker of the quiz know if news stations report the truth on Iraq or not? Has he been there?
 
The way to get a 100 on this test:

If it's the official story and it sounds good (or at least justified)... it's false.

If it sounds bad (or it's really good and we're not doing it)... it's true.

you only got a high score because your a liberal. :P

and I only got a high score because I could tell that the people who made this test are liberal... :rolleyes:

EDIT: oh and 91
 
Wow the entire thing was really just stupid. This is more of a presentation of the guy's opinions than any sort of test. If I didnt know better I would have thought he was all knowing. Apparently he knows what I was taught in school, how to cure cancer, the technological state of every major country (even top secret stuff), what every doctor is taught (I mean, it looks like he is basing that one off of just one doctor's opinion), and he is apparently qualified to be able to determine whether or not ADHD is real or fake.


Want a gullibility test?? If you believe that the link is really a test, then you are gullible.
