Entry: The Bible makes me...think... Saturday, April 10, 2004



Okay, so, I have been having this random religious problem for a couple months now, where I know that I don't agree with all aspects of the Catholic church, regardless of the fact that I am a baptized Catholic.  I also feel I am Christian because I do believe in God and Christ, and most of the new and old testament, but there's just something about it...ANYWAYS.  Studying the Bible really makes you...think.

So instead of studying the Bible, I was looking at some random "blogs" (because I have just that much free time...) and came across this very...Buddhist, organic, opinionated man.  By organic, I mean he eats only organic food, not that he himself was organic...ANYWAYS.  I was reading through, do de do de do, and I came to the Belief-o-Matic!  I got very excited.

I took the test, and these were my results:



Your Results:
The top score on the list below represents the faith that Belief-O-Matic, in its less than infinite wisdom, thinks most closely matches your beliefs. However, even a score of 100% does not mean that your views are all shared by this faith, or vice versa.

Belief-O-Matic then lists another 26 faiths in order of how much they have in common with your professed beliefs. The higher a faith appears on this list, the more closely it aligns with your thinking.

1.  Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (100%)
2.  Liberal Quakers (91%)
3.  Unitarian Universalism (90%)
4.  Reform Judaism (79%)
5.  Neo-Pagan (71%)
6.  Orthodox Quaker (69%)
7.  New Age (66%)
8.  Mahayana Buddhism (63%)
9.  Sikhism (62%)
10.  Theravada Buddhism (62%)

12.  Mainline to Conservative Christian/Protestant (59%)
13.  Bahá'í Faith (57%)
14.  Hinduism (55%)
15.  Seventh Day Adventist (53%)
16.  New Thought (53%)
17.  Scientology (53%)
18.  Eastern Orthodox (52%)

20.  Orthodox Judaism (49%)
21.  Jainism (45%)

24.  Christian Science (Church of Christ, Scientist) (41%)
25.  Nontheist (37%)
26.  Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) (34%)
27.  Jehovah's Witness (21%)



So there we go!  I know that this isn't the be all-end all of that whole religion thing, and the Bible is going to continue to make me...think...but at least I got to put off another 20 minutes of studying...  :-)
