This short, gentle quiz is designed to help you see the worldview you’re already living out, not just the label you use.

Meaning grows out of relationships, connection, and the way we care for one another.
Meaning is something we make within a universe that follows natural laws.
Meaning is personal and shaped by each person’s own story and choices.
Meaning comes from sensing a deeper reality behind everyday life.
Meaning feels tied to being known, loved, and created for a purpose.
I’m not sure — I’m still trying to understand what meaning would look like.

2. What best explains why humans have value?

Because our ability to love, think, and feel makes us inherently significant.
Because consciousness and compassion are remarkable outcomes of a long natural process.
Because value is something we assign collectively as people and cultures.
Because there is something in us that feels connected to a deeper spiritual reality.
Because our worth feels rooted in something personal and intentional, not accidental.
I believe people matter, but I’m not sure what that value is grounded in.

Morality likely developed as a way for humans to survive and cooperate.
Morality depends on someone’s background, culture, and experiences.

Humans are a mix of beauty and brokenness — valuable but clearly imperfect.
People seem both incredible and confusing, and I’m not sure what to make of it.

5. When suffering hits, which thought feels closest to your gut reaction?

What matters most in suffering is how we show up for each other with compassion.
Suffering is painful but ultimately part of an indifferent universe.
Different people interpret suffering in different ways; there isn’t one meaning.

Truth is whatever best matches evidence and observable reality.
Truth depends on perspective and lived experience.
Truth can be discovered through intuition, experience, and inner awareness.
Truth feels personal — like something (or someone) that can be known or encountered.
