I mentioned this in some random thread some time ago, but didn't receive any responses. Since I was hoping for an answer (or at least a decent argument), I'm taking the next best step... Annoying you nice folks with another speculative thread!
For a while, I've seen that the INFJ seems to get put on a pedestal alot. Words like mystic, psychic, and visionary are haphazardly thrown about in our lengthy explanations of what should simply be a list of cognitive functions
Now I know there are many of you who don't feel this way. And no worries, I make n accusations. But the reasoning behind my argument is this:
Carl Jung was an INFJ, correct? Subsequently, was he not also the man who created the MBTI? Sounds abit fishy, don't you think?
So what say you, fine internet personalities here on PerC?
Do you think this might dent the MBTI's credibility? Or do you think differently?
