Throw this into ChatGPT -> and see which western philosophy is closest to yours, posted my results at the bottom

I. Epistemology (Beliefs about Knowledge and Truth)
  1. Do you believe that objective truth exists independently of human perception, or is all knowledge filtered through subjective experience?
  2. Which do you trust more when making decisions: logic/reason, sensory experience, intuition, or tradition?
  3. Can humans ever achieve certain knowledge, or is doubt always present in some form?
  4. Do you think most people are capable of rational, independent thought, or are we largely shaped by our environment and emotions?
  5. Are you more interested in how we know things or what is worth knowing?
II. Ethics and Morality
  1. Is there an objective right and wrong, or is morality entirely relative to culture or personal choice?
  2. Should the consequences of actions determine their morality, or are some actions inherently right/wrong regardless of outcome?
  3. Is it more important to be a good person or to do good things?
  4. How much responsibility do individuals have to others, society, or future generations?
  5. Do you believe suffering has any inherent value or redemptive purpose?
III. Metaphysics (Reality and Existence)
  1. What is more real to you: physical matter, consciousness, or abstract concepts (e.g., math, love, justice)?
  2. Do you believe in free will, determinism, or some mix of both?
  3. Is the universe governed by purpose (teleology), chance, or mechanistic laws?
  4. Do you feel reality is ultimately understandable by humans, or are there truths forever beyond our grasp?
  5. Do you believe in a soul, or is consciousness a product of the physical brain alone?
IV. Political Philosophy
  1. What should be the primary goal of government: individual liberty, social equality, stability, or moral virtue?
  2. Should laws reflect objective moral truths or simply the will of the people?
  3. Do you think power inevitably corrupts, or can just rulers exist?
  4. Is rebellion against an unjust system a moral obligation or a dangerous disruption?
  5. Do you believe individuals are naturally cooperative or competitive?
V. Existential and Personal Meaning
  1. What gives life meaning: achievement, relationships, spiritual connection, personal freedom, or creating beauty?
  2. Is suffering something to be eliminated, endured, transcended, or embraced?
  3. Do you feel anxiety over the idea of death, or do you see it as a natural or even freeing event?
  4. When faced with an absurd or chaotic world, should one rebel, adapt, escape, or create new meaning?
  5. Do you believe the self is fixed, fluid, or an illusion?
VI. Self-Perception and Values
  1. Do you strive to control your desires or embrace them?
  2. Do you seek detachment and inner peace or passionate engagement with the world?
  3. Do you feel more drawn to a solitary, contemplative life or an active, social one?
  4. Are you more concerned with personal integrity or societal impact?
  5. Would you rather be wise, happy, free, just, or admired?

Does any western philosophy engage with Monism? René Guenon comes close I guess

  • Primary Fit:
    Existentialism (especially Camus & Sartre) – your views on meaning, morality, free will (or lack thereof), and personal responsibility fit the existential mold.
  • Secondary Influences:
    • Stoicism – in your desire for detachment, inner peace, and control over desires.
    • Pragmatism – in your interest in what is worth knowing and doing.
    • Determinism/Scientific Naturalism – in your metaphysical realism and view of the universe as chance-based.
  • Notable Rejections:
    • You reject Stoic and Christian redemptive suffering.
    • You reject idealism, religious metaphysics, and radical relativism.
