Are you who you say you are?
 
Since we have a lot of variation in our Christianities and just worldviews in general, I thought it might be fun to see what group the internet would put us in.


Belief-O-Matic

FWIW, I ranked 100% in secular humanism (go figure).

My results:




1. Secular Humanism (100%)
2. Unitarian Universalism (96%)
3. Liberal Quakers (83%)
4. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (83%)
5. Nontheist (75%)
6. Theravada Buddhism (65%)
7. Neo-Pagan (61%)
8. Christian Science (Church of Christ, Scientist) (50%)
9. Reform Judaism (48%)
10. Bahá'í Faith (47%)
11. Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) (47%)
12. New Age (46%)

14. New Thought (42%)
15. Sikhism (37%)
16. Mahayana Buddhism (37%)

Re: Are you who you say you are?
 
You must have answered like one question differently than me. Not that surprising that the atheists are going to be very similar since we answered N/A for most of them. Its really geared more towards theists, I suppose.

Re: What the hell???
 
My answers:

1. None of the above (henceforth NOTA), High. (None of the above because of the addition of "Or not sure. Or not important."

2. NOTA, High

3. NOTA, High

4. NOTA, High

5. NOTA, High

6. Not Applicable, High

7. Only NOTA, High

8. Not Applicable, High

9. Not Applicable, High

10. All sins/wrongs, but not necessarily to a cleric. High. (Though I don't consider many "sins" as wrongs, I still answered this way.)

11. Necessary, High.

12. Humankind is "saved" through human effort rather than through religious or spiritual means. High.

13. Agree, High

14. Disagree, High

15. Not Applicable, High. (Almost put disagree.)

16. Disagree, Medium. (Almost put high. I don't care about marriage that much, but I do care about discrimination.)

17. Agree, High

18. Disagree, High. (Sometimes violence is necessary.)

19. Disagree, High.

20. Not Applicable, Medium.

I'm going to take it again, but with changing my first few answers from the NOTA to the next best thing, which dubiously includes "Or not sure. Or not important."

Hmmm... close enough.

Re: Are you who you say you are?
 
My results reflect certain inadequacies of the survey... it doesn't really have a way to express that I have some rather specific ideas about how the world works / should work, but generally reject off-the-shelf religions. It correctly puts Christians at the bottom of the list, but it can't decide what sort of paganism, mysticism, animism, whatever, to put at the top:

1. Hinduism (100%)
2. Mahayana Buddhism (97%)
3. Jainism (88%)
4. Unitarian Universalism (83%)
5. Theravada Buddhism (81%)
6. Liberal Quakers (72%)
7. Neo-Pagan (69%)
8. Sikhism (66%)
9. New Age (65%)
10. Bah�'� Faith (64%)
11. Orthodox Judaism (62%)
12. Islam (60%)
13. Taoism (54%)
14. Nontheist (49%)
15. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (48%)
16. Orthodox Quaker (46%)
17. Christian Science (Church of Christ, Scientist) (44%)
18. New Thought (44%)
19. Seventh Day Adventist (44%)
20. Mainline to Conservative Christian/Protestant (43%)
21. Scientology (43%)
22. Secular Humanism (43%)
23. Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) (42%)

25. Jehovah's Witness (42%)
26. Roman Catholic (42%)
27. Reform Judaism (31%)
