Answering in Taoist mode only rated me 79% Taoist. Wierd. 100% liberal Quaker, but I`m really a hellbound agnostic.

Ah, looks like I'm reinforcing the existing trend here. I was expecting a higher "secular humanism" rating (it was down at 9), though.

Hmmm....74% of what I actually am, works for me. But yet 76% Jehovah's Witness! Bloody Bugger NO! I can understand the other five, particularly the Judaism since my church has an old joke about how Mormons are just young Jews and Jews are just old Mormons. And we share quite a bit in common with Islam, but Jehovahs Witnesses? Whatever

Don't worry about the Baha'i they are a liberal Jewish/Islamic sect (Yes, they are both Jews and Moslems, practice nonviolence, and are widly opressed in the Middle East.....)

Orthodox Judaism: 86%
Islam: 74%
Neo-Paganism: 63%

Relatively accurate...

Post by **Coyote** » 2002-10-27 12:10am

The Sikhism replies are common because I'd wager that a lot of us said that pacificsm was not a fundamental, and the Sikhs basically parallel the tenets of the Big Three but have a fierce warrior code built into them that makes them highly sought-after mercenaries.

I'd also wager that many of us said that Nature Conservation was "very important" in terms of being Fundamental, hence the high response to neo-Paganism, too...

All in all, I think we're in decent company.

My answers. The question number and then the answer and finaly the priority.
1. No God or supreme force. Or not sure. Or not important. high.
2. No incarnations as there is no God. Or not sure. Or not important. high
3. Only natural forces (like evolution) and no Creator or spiritual forces. Or not sure. Or not important. High.
4. No afterlife; no spiritual existence beyond life; no literal heaven and hell. Or not sure. Or not important. High.
5. No supernatural or spiritual reasons. Human nature, psychology, sociology, criminology, etc., explain wrongdoing. Or not sure. Or not important. High.
6. Not applicable. High.
7. None of the above; human suffering has nothing to do with the supernatural or karma. High.
Questions 8-11 were all answered: "Not applicable and medium (as I do not believe in salvation).
Question 12 was left unanswered (as I do not belief that mankind will be saved, we will unventualy die of extinction).
Questions 13-20 were all answered: "Not applicable and medium (as I am not a member of any religion).

The results I got using these answers were not EXACTLY the same as on the first go, but I think that these represent my beliefs better then on the first time (I did the quiz quite quickly and might have made a mistake the first time).

I think this quiz is an advertisement for Unitarian Universalism.

EDIT: Just so's you know, I chose "NA" for all the questions regarding morals and such. Because as I don't feel there should be a religion, I don't feel that my religion should take a stand on any of the issues. That's why I got all the 0s, methinks.
