What temperment are you?
« Reply #10 on: February 05, 2013, 11:51:08 AM »
Thank you Spiritus for that link, I took the test and according to results I am  Melencholic.

My question and I hope someone comes along with an answer or at least an opinion.

When God creates our soul does He infuse our personality within it?




Also: If God knows all things, does He know when He creates our soul if we will win Heaven?

I was pondering just this morning, that very point.  If God knows at the moment our soul is created and before it is infused within the fetus that we will not cooperate with His grace, is He then creating something evil?

Can God create an evil?

Then my mind started to think of the fallen angels and did God know which angels would fall before He created them?  If yes, then is God creating an evil?

I can't imagine that God can and will create an evil, it is easier for me to think that at the second He creates a soul, He does not know if the soul will eventually save its soul or not.  

Please what do you think?

Those are interesting explanations at fish eaters.  I can see how my temperament has changed dramatically over the years.

Ah, a fellow Melancholic! Nice.

That's somewhat of a difficult question for me to answer. While I would be inclined to say yes, personalities can also change over time. For instance, when I was younger I'd say I was more of a Sanguine than a Melancholic, because I was very energetic and outgoing, whereas a Melancholic is more quiet and prefers to be alone as opposed to socialising. Within the last several years, however, although I'm more outgoing than the average Melancholic, I have become a bit more quiet and laid back.

Most of the traits of a Melacholic - sensitive, artistic, easily embarassed, low self-confidence at certain times, etc. - fit me to a tee. I'd also say I'm still partly Sanguine, which explains why I'm more outgoing and talkative than the average Melancholic, but I've become more Melancholic over the years.

Yes.

No, God creates good, He only allows evil.

God knew what angels would would fall, but He created all of them good.

I hope this helps.

@ ServusSpiritusSancti: whoa! How can you be melancholic AND sanguine??? To me that sounds almost impossible, considering they're practiclly opposites!!   :scratchchin:

Have no idea what I am... sanguine... cholaric...melancholic...phlegmatic...

Well, a majority of people are a combination of two temperaments. I've heard of some people who are a mix of Melancholic and Choleric, now THAT seems odd, because those temperaments are exact opposites. The Sanguine temperament is a little closer to Melancholic than the Choleric temperament is.

For those who are uncertain what temperament what they are, they can take the test here:
