I don't know who hardly any of these guys are so I really don't know what these results mean:

1. Spinoza   (100%)
2. Aquinas   (91%)
3. Nietzsche   (88%)
4. Epicureans   (86%)
5. Jeremy Bentham   (83%)
6. St. Augustine   (78%)
7. Jean-Paul Sartre   (77%)
8. Aristotle   (75%)
9. Nel Noddings   (73%)
10. Thomas Hobbes   (72%)
11. David Hume   (68%)
12. Kant   (65%)
13. Stoics   (65%)
14. John Stuart Mill   (55%)
15. Ayn Rand   (52%)
16. Cynics   (47%)
17. Ockham   (34%)
18. Plato   (34%)
19. Prescriptivism   (34%)

I'll just be happy Ayn Rand is fairly low.

You can click on "more info" if you're confused.

Sartre, my top result, for example:

# When we choose something, we affirm the value of our choice because we have chosen it above other choices
# When we choose something for ourselves, we should choose it for all people.
# We must be consistent in our interpretations of moral situations regardless of whom the agent is.
# Logic cannot help us specific situations
# Making conscious moral choices is more significant than consistently following moral guidelines
# The conflict between the interests of two people is in the end, irresolvable
