I used to be able to type people based off their favorite movies. It was a neat party trick, but I've forgotten the methodology... should have written it down.

Autism isn't extroversion or introversion. Extroversion and Introversion are about how you expend/gain energy in an interaction. Extroverts feed off social interaction, introverts get drained by people bombarding their senses. As a result, introverts can be withdrawn and can be seen as awkward...

As EventH said, the quickest way for an answer is to be direct, probably the best. As I said before, INFJ's like others to initiate, and feel out the expectations of a situation. If you initiate a muddled, "I'm just going to put out probes to feel this situation out," you'll never get anywhere...

INFJ's are more comfortable with other people taking the initiative on things, more so than most other personality types - unless their principles are on the line (In which case, pray to your heathen gods). It makes it difficult to be the man in the relationship unless I'm on a self-righteous...

Yes, there is a lot of benefit to taking children to church, especially if you're involved in the community. My family was at one point involved in a church, then left when I was getting into middle school and high school. We moved around a lot, I didn't have any close friends, and my dad is an...

I'm a follower of Christ, so "love" isn't a measure of how intense my emotions are about someone. I consider it a mindset. I once had a (Christian) friend who claimed he would only ever say "I love you" to a very few people. Love was hierarchal and exclusive to him. He measured it by the...

You make many interesting points, and I'm glad you disagree with the movies' assertions that the Romans made up all of Jesus. It still boils down to the question of why would people follow a persecuted cult if it were a rip off of so many others? You're right to assert that gods evolved and...

I'm very sorry to hear that La Sagna. INTJgal, I have a roommate who is inflicted with the ESTP personality type. ESTP's are rather self-centered. There is an element of self-sacrifice to them that if they care about you, they will try to patch things up - as logically and quickly and possibly...

I think you're giving people too much credit. Not everyone is as ingenious as an INFJ to come up and follow through with such complex plans. ;) There seems to be a bit of misunderstanding. Imperial involvement in the development of Christianity (aside from trying to squash it) did not happen...

I'd recommend reading "The Jewish Gospels" or "Jews and Antiquity" if you want reputable scholarly work on the beginnings of Christianity and the nature of Classical Jewish Messianism. These videos are entertaining conspiracy theories that are tempting, but ignore a lot of historical context -...
