Hmm... I've just been lookin' through it, this is a much cooler site
than I had imagined. A Conreligion Selector would be great!

I checked it out. It's pretty durned good. I came out as:

2) Aristotelian

You want to know everything, including everyone's opinion of everything,
and to make perfect sense of everything. You leave not only no stone
unturned but also on occasion uproot larger trees and smaller islands in
your pursuit of knowing everything. You speak in short, cryptic
sentences that leave your friends talking about you for hours afterward,
arguing about the uncertain but obviously very deep meaning of what
you've said. You think the practical is beneath your concern, which
sometimes leads you to make
silly mistakes. You are convinced that since everything is connected to
everything else you can extrapolate from the known to the unknown with
great assurance, which sometimes leads you to reach far beyond the facts
to perfectly general false conclusions, which makes people look at you
funny. You like to write thin books full of thick arguments.

Adjectives: Curious, cryptic, meticulous, grandiose

Yeah, it was right on for me, also, although maybe a bit too exaggerated
- I don't take all the traits it mentions to the extent it mentions. But
over all, it's right. Which is good.
