What in the world am I?
On a whim, I clicked on a link to BeliefNet’s Belief-O-Matic, which claims to know “what religion you are” (that is, to what religion you adhere) even if you don’t. I took the 20-question quiz, didn’t like being forced into discrete categories on some of the items, and ended up with this list:
1. Bahá’í Faith (100%)
2. Sikhism (91%)
3. Reform Judaism (86%)
4. Orthodox Judaism (85%)
5. Liberal Quakers (76%)
6. Islam (75%)
7. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (72%)
8. Unitarian Universalism (67%)
9. Neo-Pagan (67%)
10. Jainism (65%)
11. Hinduism (62%)
12. Eastern Orthodox (57%)
13. Roman Catholic (57%)
14. Orthodox Quaker (56%)
15. Mahayana Buddhism (54%)
16. New Age (51%)
17. Mainline to Conservative Christian/Protestant (49%)
18. Seventh Day Adventist (49%)
19. New Thought (41%)
20. Theravada Buddhism (41%)
21. Secular Humanism (36%)
22. Scientology (36%)
23. Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) (33%)
24. Taoism (29%)
25. Nontheist (27%)
26. Christian Science (Church of Christ, Scientist) (23%)
27. Jehovah’s Witness (20%)
