You scored as Kantianism. Your life is guided by the ethical model of Kantianism: You seek to have consistent laws rule your actions, and your will is directed by reason.
"I do not, therefore, need any penetrating acuteness to see what I have to do in order that my volition be morally good. Inexperienced in the course of the world, incapable of being prepared for whatever might come to pass in it, I ask myself only: can you also will that your maxim become a universal law?"
--Immanuel Kant
Huh, that's funny because I ran into Kant in philosophy of law and in ethics...
I find it interesting that hedonism ranks third - I had the same top three but in different percentages (70, 70, and 50). I wonder what that means?
The father of existentialism, Soren Kierkegaard, was a Christian theologian.

95% existentialist
95% hedonist
65% utilitarian
55% divine command
