No, James, not at all. The ethical life does not exclude pleasure.

I'd add: I'fn it don't hurt somone else.

So, good Dr. Slater, what exactly are the philosophical tenets of Golden Retrieverism?

A very good sign. All the Goldens of my acquaintance have been happy, down-to-earth, loving dogs.
It's not quite as high an honor as "Orange-and-white tabby cat", but if you have the spiritual values of a Golden Retriever you should be pleased.

I revisited the site to look for information about the spiritual belifsystems of felines. Nothing there.
There was however another quiz ebcouraging visitors to test their Spiritual type.
I scored 13 on a scale of 0 to 100. Curiously there are no interpretations for scores below 25(Hardcore Skeptic).
I think that being a cat is a religion in itself. Either near agnostic or higly solipsismic with the cat itself as the supreme being of its own universe.

See the duck. Retrieve the duck. Eat when the hand serves. Bark when you are happy. Bark when you are sad. It's sort of a zen thing.
P.S. I got Secular Humanist as #1. Sounds about right.

Well it said I was 100% Secular Humanist, 98% U/U, and 88% Atheist. I am not sure about the Universalist stuff, but I can go with the other two.
