Belief-O-Matic

[Smoke]

And it's changed a bit since the lasReligious Education Forum - Reply to Topict time I took the test, hehe.

My results change a little every time I take it. My answers probably change a little, and the importance I assign to them definitely varies from time to time.

I took it in January and my top matches were:

1. Theravada Buddhism (100%)
2. Unitarian Universalism (91%)
3. Secular Humanism (88%)
4. Liberal Quakers (82%)
5. Neo-Pagan (76%)
6. Taoism (76%)
7. Mahayana Buddhism (73%)

I took it just now and got:

1. Unitarian Universalism (100%)
2. Theravada Buddhism (98%)
3. Secular Humanism (93%)
4. Liberal Quakers (84%)
5. Neo-Pagan (77%)
6. Mahayana Buddhism (73%)
7. Taoism (67%)

1. Secular Humanism (100%) 2. Unitarian Universalism (93%) 3. Nontheist (76%) 4. Liberal Quakers (73%) 5. Theravada Buddhism (66%) 6. Neo-Pagan (65%) 7. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (63%) 8. Taoism (51%) 9. Reform Judaism (51%)

I've taken this quiz before several times. Over time, the results have changed. I'm not sure how Unitarian Universalism is only 93% since it is based on affirming principles, not beliefs or creeds. This is how they appear now:

1. Secular Humanism (100%) 2. Unitarian Universalism (93%) 3. Liberal Quakers (76%) 4. Nontheist (76%) 5. Neo-Pagan (73%) 6. Theravada Buddhism (67%) 7. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (65%) 8. Taoism (59%) 9. Reform Judaism (54%) 10. New Age (53%) 11. Baha'i Faith (41%) 12. Sikhism (41%) 13. Mahayana Buddhism (40%) 14. Scientology (40%) 15. New Thought (37%) 16. Orthodox Quaker (34%) 17. Christian Science (Church of Christ, Scientist) (30%) 18. Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) (27%) 19. Jainism (24%) 20. Mainline to Conservative Christian/Protestant (22%) 21. Eastern Orthodox (17%) 22. Islam (17%) 23. Orthodox Judaism (17%) 24. Roman Catholic (17%) 25. Hinduism (13%) 26. Seventh Day Adventist (13%) 27. Jehovah's Witness (0%)

 

[invisible chzbrgr]

Not too surprising, I think I've gotten UU up there once before. I consider myself an atheist, but the secular humanist thing I guess came in because I attached importance to the social betterment stuff.

A liberal atheist is a secular humanist, a conservative atheist is a nontheist on that site?

1. Secular Humanism (100%) 2. Unitarian Universalism (91%) 3. Nontheist (78%) 4. Liberal Quakers (74%) 5. Theravada Buddhism (68%)

I don't really get the difference between atheism and nontheism.

It always surprises me to see Taoism lower on the list. I think it is because they are talking religious Taoism. I am also surprised the Protestantism and Judaism are in my top ten. I made it quite clear I don't believe in god like that. Oh well.

How on Earth did you score above 90% for both "nontheist" AND Islam?

I thought all those 100%'s were kind of strange as well???
