100% Unitarian Universalist
95% Neo-Pagan

Surprised the results were as accurate as they were, because the questions were a little crappy and way to Abrahamic focused.


Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.

Merlin ...I too was shocked but a Quaker? Damn! Good thing they didn't ask any sexual questions (except for homoS thing) I think that would have blown my Quaker label out of the sea, unless the Quakers are have more kinks than I know....hey they are good with ropes and such! In reality I would aspire to be a Quaker, and respect them as much as a Buddhist monk, which is a complement. Their sustainable way of life and low impact on the earth sets an example for the rest of us. I would however be a hi tech red neck as George Jones says and use a little more technology...

Another Quaker! I think this thing is biased and trying to recruit Quakers, because my views do not go in that direction!

Seriously, there are a number of serious flaws in that 'test' but it's entertaining.

# Secular Humanism Belief in Deity: Not considered important. Most Humanists are atheists or agnostics.
# Incarnations: Same as above.
# Origins of universe/life: The scientific method is most respected as the means for revealing the mysteries of the origins of the universe and life.
# After death: An afterlife or spiritual existence after death is not recognized.
# Why evil? No concept of “evil.” Reasons for wrongdoing are explored through scientific methods, e.g. through study of sociology, psychology, criminology, etc.
# Salvation: No concept of afterlife or spiritual liberation or salvation. Realizing ones personal potential and working for the betterment of humanity through ethical consciousness and social works are considered paramount, but from a naturalistic rather than supernatural standpoint.
# Undeserved suffering: No spiritual reasons, but rather a matter of human vulnerability to misfortune, illness, and victimization.
# Contemporary Issues: The American Humanist Association endorses elective abortion. Other contemporary views include working for equality for homosexuals, gender equality, a secular approach to divorce and remarriage, working to end poverty, promoting peace and non-violence, and environmental protection.

#1 - 100% -- Neo-Pagan

#2 - 98% -- Universalist Unitarian

Which, as it turns out, is the church I attend whenever I attend church.
