Exclamation My top 10 list...

1.Unitarian Universalism (100%) (Huh???)
2.Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (98%) (Damn "L" word )
3.Liberal Quakers (95%) (Dammit there's the "L" word yet again but with those oatmeal loving folk )
4.Neo-Pagan (81%) (Tree huggers...Woo-hoo!)
5.Mahayana Buddhism (71%) (Cool)
6.Baha i Faith (71%) (O-kay??!!!??)
7.Hinduism (71%) (Cool!!!)
8.Christian Science (66%) (Sorry, Don't like John Travolta!!)
9.New Thought (66%) (WTH??)
10.Secular Humanism (64%) (WTF???)

The least 2 were Roman Catholic (21%) & Islam (19%) (Obviously I am NOT surprised these 2 were dead last!!!)

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.

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.

Looks like they have a website if you are interested in learning more about your beliefs. 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.

Secular Humanists are atheists.

Nah, he's a Scientologist. They're even freakier.

But the term "Christian Science" is quite the oxymoron, eh?

Don't worry, I'm not into that stuff. Then again, religion in general holds no real interest for me. I havn't gone to church in two years.
