Updated, 04/30/09: I think it is inborn and also is not; I believe the empathic ability exists as the point by which things are perceived. So just being aware, conscious and alive we are an empath. I also think that as individuals we are born with different empathic abilities. However, we are alive, and I think that means we are still developing or can learn empath skills, as it has been discovered or it appears that the brain can be rewired.
I Think this test IS limited and I don't think it shows all your empathic abilities. I think you could be very empathic in areas that are not even listed here. Not to mention that the types listed are based on a certain point and/or from a certain perspective. Never the less I think it could help me see similarities I have with others at a given time at least. Or it maybe you could see an area that you want to be more open to by seeing what the score is.
When doing this quiz just be honest. While what it says you are may not be what you are, if your honest and others are too you will be able to see similarities between yourself and others because it is based on answers you honestly give in response to questions. For now try it it could be fun.

I took the quiz, and it seems I'm not much of an Empath at all! Here are my results:

Is it possible to develop ones empathic side?
I joined the group because I love Marshall Rosenbergs stuff and Nonviolent Communication. I'd love to be more empathic, but is it something that is inborn?
Yes that's a good point, it almost surely would be at least a little different.
I'm with your thoughts on that Rawzi, I agree. At least being a child could be an advantage or at least to development of empathic skills in some way. Thanks for posting

I think I'll post this at the top in the original post thank you, you made me think.
Amen, Loren. So do you feel the same way about blending then? The whole fiber is still there with blending so not improving on nature as much as sort of 'pre-chewing', if you will
I'm planning to start enemas too (I think when my roommate will leave next month...). Of course it's unnatural, but we have eaten unnatural for years and years and I believe it can help a lot getting out the waste.
