Belief-o-Matic

Posted on Jun 2, 2002 in Me|dia | 3 comments

Jonathon led me to the Belief-o-Matic. I usually avoid these things, but this was interesting. I ended up marking all but two of the questions as high priority. I wasn’t aware I was such an opinionated bastard. Heh.
Anyway, my results, for what they’re worth :
1. Unitarian Universalism (100%)
2. Secular Humanism (95%)
3. Liberal Quakers (91%)
4. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (89%)
5. Nontheist (75%)
6. Neo-Pagan (74%)
7. Christian Science (Church of Christ, Scientist) (68%)
8. Bahá’í Faith (66%)
9. Theravada Buddhism (65%)
10. Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) (63%)
11. New Age (57%)
12. Jehovah’s Witness (52%)
13. Orthodox Quaker (49%)
14. Mainline to Conservative Christian/Protestant (48%)
15. New Thought (45%)
16. Mahayana Buddhism (43%)
17. Reform Judaism (41%)
18. Sikhism (41%)
19. Taoism (39%)
20. Scientology (37%)
21. Jainism (33%)
22. Hinduism (30%)
23. Eastern Orthodox (24%)
24. Islam (24%)
25. Orthodox Judaism (24%)
26. Roman Catholic (24%)
27. Seventh Day Adventist (24%)
I’m not going to tell you the ‘official faith’ of the university at which I teach. That would result in gales of uproarious laughter, and this is a serious subject, damn it!
(Oh, and it’s not Scientificology. What the hell is that doing on the list? If Sciencology is a religion, the Pope is a cheeselog.)
Edit : The above might have looked very different if I’d seen this Scientific Proof of GOD (SPOG) first! Or not.

    You’ve probably covered this at some point, but I’m new. What exactly do you teach?
