An interesting quiz.......

[GypsySorcerer]

I took this quiz once before, and found it really interesting. Hope you all enjoy it too.

Belief quiz (http://www.beliefnet.com/story/76/story_7665_1.html)

[Johnny Stew]

I was raised Roman Catholic... Roman Catholicism placed #26 (with 24% compatability) out of the 27 religions which most closely matched my belief systems.

#1, at 100%, was Neo-Paganism, and #2, at 90%, was Mahayana Buddhism.

Very interesting.
Thanks for posting that, Krista! :wavey:

That's interesting. These things are usually hit or miss for me, but this one was right. I am a Mahayana Buddhist. :D

[GateandGarden]

This is a really cool quiz. I've been taking it once a year for the past five years or so I believe, and I almost always got Liberal Quaker as my highest (99%). The last time I took it, though (recently), I got 99% Secular Humanism and a much lower score for Liberal Quaker, and I suppose this is because I've gotten to be more cynical in my old age. :laugh:

Unitarian Universalists are cool and they invite all "religions" to worship together. I was going to get married in this type of church I liked it so much, but I never did get married. I liked how humble it was, there wasn't any gold guilding or pomp and circumstance. But the place was beautiful nevertheless. The minister was female. :shocked: ;)

Looks like they have a website if you are interested in learning more about your beliefs. :laugh: http://www.uua.org/

I the UU church as well. They seem very open and inviting, and as you said, borrow elements from many, many religions.

Good, because Scientologists believe that an alien named Xenu is God. They carry around quarters in their pockets to pay cab fare in case a spaceship comes to Earth to bring them into space. :laugh:

I was surprised Satanist wasnt my #1, But technically Satanism is considered a Christian religion...

And I am definitely not into Christianity, I tried that religion years back, Didnt do a thing for me but open my eyes to how hatefilled, separatistic & how they seem to love/enjoy class warfare....Apologies to anyone here who is a Christian, Your church/church leaders may have been alright, The church I attended (And their leaders) tried to basically brainwash/lobotomize me.
