Which metaphysical philosopher are you?
http://www.selectsmart.com/FREE/sele...?client=philos

My top 5:
1. St. Thomas Aquinas (so apparently I hold to Thomist metaphysics...I can deal with that)
2. G.W. Leibniz (I have no idea who this is, not having delved too deeply into philosophy yet)
3. St. Augustine
4. Martin Heidegger
5. Plato

(1) Hegel
(2) Satre
(3) Aristotle
(4) Heracleitus
(5) St. Augustine

...I don't see that those top 5 are very similar to each other, though.
