Belief-O-Matic!
There's a fun little questionaire over at Beliefnet that determines your religious "fit" by a percentage score, and then ranks how your views fit with major religious traditions on a descending percentage scale. Not suprisingly, it listed me as 100% secular humanist. Here's my ranking:
Secular Humanism (100%)
Unitarian Universalism (92%)
Liberal Quakers (76%)
Nontheist (75%)
Theravada Buddhism (73%)
Neo-Pagan (64%)
Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (60%)
New Age (49%)
Taoism (47%)
Reform Judaism (45%)
Orthodox Quaker (42%)
Mahayana Buddhism (42%)
Baha'i Faith (32%)
Scientology (31%)
Sikhism (31%)
Jainism (31%)
New Thought (29%)
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) (25%)
Christian Science (Church of Christ, Scientist) (24%)
Mainline to Conservative Christian/Protestant (23%)
Islam (22%)
Orthodox Judaism (22%)
Seventh Day Adventist (21%)
Hinduism (20%)
Eastern Orthodox (18%)
Roman Catholic (18%)
Jehovah's Witness (12%)
It certainly isn't perfect, I really don't see how a 20 question survey can tell all that much about you, but its a fun little diversion. If you want to take the Belief-O-Matic test, click here!
I'm amused that Roman Catholicism, the faith I was raised in, is second from the bottom. Guess the nuns didn't beat me hard enough.
So, how did you do?
