Per Typealyzer, The American Catholic blog has the personality type of an INTP according to the Myer’s Briggs indicator. Here is the description:
The logical and analytical type. They are especially attuned to difficult creative and intellectual challenges and always look for something more complex to dig into. They are great at finding subtle connections between things and imagine far-reaching implications.
They enjoy working with complex things using a lot of concepts and imaginative models of reality. Since they are not very good at seeing and understanding the needs of other people, they might come across as arrogant, impatient and insensitive to people that need some time to understand what they are talking about.
I suspect that most (tolerable) writing about culture, religion, and politics contains the attributes Typealyzer assigns to INTP’s. Nevertheless, as a proud INFP, I pledge to feel more and think less in all of my posts going forward (kindly refrain from telling me when I’m succeeding).
For those unfamiliar with Myer’s Briggs type indicator, here is the Wikipedia description.
Cool and interesting stuff!
“arrogant, impatient and insensitive to people that need some time to understand what they are talking about.”
How dare typealyzer malign us, us! I have no patience with such an attitude! The people who designed typealyzer obviously can’t comprehend what we are trying to accomplish here! (Exit Don pursued by men and women in white coats.)
My blog was pegged as an ESPF, whereas I am an INTP. Go figure.
Oops, sorry, ESFP. So my blog must be my alternate reality then, I guess. 🙂
That’s funny Roger – it seems odd to me that any blog would be classified as ‘E’, since blogging is kind of a solitary enterprise.
You all are sounding like a bunch of Scientologists now.
How neat!
Mr. Henry– maybe because it’s just another way of talking? Like putting out broadsheets?
“You all are sounding like a bunch of Scientologists now.”
lol. ‘e’ stands for extroverted.
Foxfier – That could be. One of the reasons I like this blog is that it strives to be a collaborative on-line community.
