the highly intelligent figure with ample charisma due to his understanding of people and confidence in himself, and perfect rationality in all circumstances.
It's amazing how whether we realize it or not, an INTP always knows that their strongest form will have great use of Fe, and thus aspires to this.
But I'd hate to live in a world without my INFJs, ENTPs, INFPs, INTJs, and all the other N's and a handful of S's.
In response to the topic:
First of all, I disagree that I became INTP in reaction to being bullied and picked on etc. That all came because I was a weird INxx kid, and thus terribly misunderstood by the others. If it was pure nurture and no nature, then I should have been an INFP, because with an ENTP older brother, the NT nitch in the family had already been satisfied, and I should have filled in the Feeling gap (I was actually pretty damn emotional as a Kid... Somewhere along the line it turned into cold rationality.)
What makes you think the world was meant to be different from this though? Is it really neccesary to have more INTPs, or more of any other type in the world?
Think about it, what would happen if all humans were INTJs for instance? Everyone would have there own vision of how things should be run, there would be very little agreement, and certainly even less willingness to follow other people. A world of all SJs would be organized, but would eventually either die out do to lack of willingness to adapt to new situations, or it would remain a very small human population do to uninventiveness (No offense any SJs reading this.)
But it seems that we all fit together quite well, like pieces of a puzzle, and there is a good reason we and other Ns are so few in number:
We can accomplish the same amount or even more in smaller numbers.
INxx's are the rarest of all types, and still we have inflenced mankind more than any other types. So is it really neccesary that there be more of us?
Perhaps we already are living in a perfect world, maybe we are just not living in it perfectly?
