Hi Anouk

I'm not at all convinced by this... I come out at 100% Christian Scientist, followed by 99% Liberal Christian Protestant.... Ummm.... I don't believe in any gods - how could I possibly be in any way Christian???? And the ones I would associate myself with to some extent come out as 83% New Age, 77% Neo Pagan, and 67% Taoism. The real irony is that, according to this I'm more of a Secular Humanist than I am a Neo-Pagan. About the only thing I agree with Humanists on is the no-gods bit!

Yeah, I was 100% Unitarian with something like 97% Liberal Christian

Moderate. Unitarian I could buy, but I answered " no god " to pretty much

everything. How does that work?

its a quizz which ask you various questions about your beliefs, then tells which religion you learn towards.

 

my results were, 91% neo-pagan 90% Jainist with a little bit of quaker, and universal church trhown in there.

Hello, I'm new here, so first of all I'd like to say hi to everyone.

I'm from the UK and have been vegan for over 20 years and am

interested in human and animal rights, and environmentalism and green

politics.

 

I did the belief-o-matic quizz and came out as 100% secular humanist.

Buddhism, Jainism and neo paganism featured in there too, so as I

consider myself to basically be a humanist who's interested in

aspects of the mentioned religions (the compassion of Buddhism and

Jainism and the environmental concerns of neo paganism), but don't

believe in the deity bits, the quizz was spot on.

Hi Libby

 

Welcome to the group. I'm in the UK too - a Pagan, and animal

activist, although more involved in the letter writing side now.

 

I hope you enjoy it here.

I did this again as it is a couple of years since I last did it. I came out 100% New Age, 99% Liberal Christian Protestant (???????????????????????????? I don't believe in Gods either!) and 98% neo-Pagan.

 

As I was going through I noticed that in over half athe questions there was no Pagan answer, and most of the questions had at least two options for Christian belief.

 

I am Pagan, and partially New Age - not sure where the Christian bit managed to force itself into my answers.

I'm wondering if it takes any answer that acknowledges the possibility

of a life force or whatever you want to call it just automatically

marks you down as believing in God? Maybe it was written by someone

slanted in that way.

I think you may be right. It's a shame it is not more comprehensive.
