I just found this page about the MBTI type of Jesus, and while that was interesting, this question came into my mind: what is the personality type of God of the Bible? I would definitely think he is a J type, what with the divine plan. :P

What do you think?

Well. He seeks attention, and demands to be worshiped.
Is all knowing. Quite bossy. And if you don't do what he wants he punishes you, so I guess he is quite sensitive.

I would say ENFJ. But then again, I have no idea what I am talking about.

By the way, what type did it say Jesus was?

duh.
Actually he may be INTJ, Jesus would be INFJ.

Where were you xxpbdudexx? You missed out on some great topics http://intpforum.com/showthread.php?p=199038&highlight=jesus#post199038
I rarely ever go into the Psychology subforum...

The site I was on said INFP, but I could understand INFJ too. Actually, INFJ might work better.

Of course there are many Jesuses, each with their own personality type. My own model of Jesus--the historical Jesus--is a charismatic cult leader and orator, something like a traveling Pentecostal tent revivalist. The ENFJ personality type seems to fit that model best, and there seems to be a few authors who think ENFJs make the best cult leaders. To illustrate, it is supposedly the same personality type as Barack Obama.

God has the same personality types as whoever had the most influence on the whole the idea. I think I would go with ENFJ again on God.

Why does everyone say J. God may have created but he certainly doesnt maintain. I have never read the bible, dont intend to so i cant really say for sure but from the general things i see, he made something, and lets it get dirty and beat down before coming through and cleaning it all out at once every now and then except what he wants to keep. Sounds like kind of lazy and spontanious P type behavior to me.

This is utter speculation of course. :smoker:

1. If he created the universe, he at least created it with a highly organized structure
2. He has commands that MUST NOT be broken
3. He prefers to have absolute control over everything
4. Has a meticulous plan

At least the God of the Bible.

Lol no fair. Im too lazy to go back and look for traits from each actor. And i dont trust peoples typing ability enough to steal answers from someone else on the internet.

So i will take the safe option and generalize. :D I would say that since he doesnt neccesarily plot or plan anything, he goes with the flow of what happens, stopping crime as it comes, he is probably P. The s/n and t/f are harder to decide, I would choose N over S, after much thought, more because he does seem to make intuitive leaps, and he seems to stay one step ahead of the bad guys, as opposed to say Superman who seems to have more S like behavior, charging into battle and having to learn from experience. I would say T simply because he take a logical approach to what he does, he maintains calm and composed when making desicions (mostly came to this conclusion because he doesnt kill people, ever, even when people he cares about are in danger) And I of course because.. he is batman :confused: does it need support?

Who would have guessed i would say INTP :rolleyes: What other kind of person would be comfortable confining themselves to a cave, and be so hell-bent to see justice that he would put on a crazy ass outfit and go beat on criminals. (This is not taking psychological disorders into question of course)

I have actually had a discussion with a friend before but i never finished my thought process because we ended up arguing about the J and P before anything else. I still maintain P. My friend said that bruce wayne was a business man, and most likely J type, i say that he inherited his fortune, and probably has minimal effort in maintaining the company. He followed up by saying that a P type wouldnt follow through with such a demanding lifestyle, I followed with saying that just becasue P types are less motivated people, it doesnt mean that they cant be devoted to something that is important to them, besides, it is something that would be constantly fufilling, which would cause any rush seeking P type to go back for more and more. He went back and stood behind his businessman arguement and i got kind of irritated and said something along the lines of, what are you trying to say that P types cant be successful and have nice things? And the conversation dwindeled from there.

Wow, after i posted that last reply i went back and saw what EyeSeeCold said, good shit.

and @ xxpbdudexx- While he demands that his commands be followed, and that he prefers to have absolute control, he doesnt does he? I think a J type would be more strict after making demands. The plan you speek of, as far as i know, he only planned out one thing throughout the entirety of his existance, i would hope that it is meticulous. Annnd as for the universe being complex, what are you trying to say P types cant make nice things or have complex thoughts? :D Again, utter speculation.

Plus, God only had to speak things into existence.

Sounds like every INTP's dream.

If we could do that, we wouldn't have trouble applying our ideas, now, would we?
Charts and visualisations sure do help...
