And another thing… why am I anti Fundie for telling people to leave my property? I’m anti people on my lawn harassing my son.

33 points, sane. I’m neither an agnostic or lapsed Christian, but I’ve never been much of a church goer, so I guess “lapsed” is close enough.

Sounds about right.

My score on that one:

Your result for The World Dough-Me-Neigh-Shun Test …  
Doctor Enterprising

43% Insanity, 57% Practicality, 85% Ambitiousness and 15% Laziness!

Ambitiousness was your highest score. You’re determined to succeed to the point that I can’t have you around. So it’s to the dungeon with you. Bobo, take this person away… and extra torture for this one.

They didn’t offer my preferred answer to the “Fundies gathering on your lawn to pray for your gay son” question: _5) “Accidentally” maim the Fundies while attempting to mow the lawn while they are praying. With a riding mower. That I had to borrow from a neighbor._

Anti-Fundie.

#12 is a bullshit question, as there is no “Jesus most likely historically existed, but was not the Son of God” answer.

16, anti-fundie. No surprise here.

I wonder where those 16 points came from? I guess maybe I’m a tiny bit atheist fundamentalist? heh.

I agree with **Frank** that #12 is kind of a bad question. I don’t really know what the evidence (outside of the bible) is about if he existed or not, so I wavered and eventually picked ‘didn’t exist’ because I’m sure that if he did exist he was not the son of god.

Hah! I got a 15! I totally win.

Five percent of my “peers” (might explain something) were lower than that apparently.

THE MOST IMPORTANT STATEMENT ON THE WHOLE QUIZ:

> [@right side of linked page](#):
>
> The Fundamentalist Christian Test is one of over 30,000 tests on OkCupid. Anyone can write tests on OkCupid, and topics range from music, hobbies, and religion to sex and online dating.

I highlighted the relevant part. This has no relevance whatsoever, and many (most?) of the questions were flawed, either intentionally or not. I think we all probably got exactly the result we wanted/expected. I’m “sane,” but then I already knew that 😉

Which is silly. I’m not "anti-"anything. Just sane.

Some Anti-Fundies will attack you just as remorselesly as they do your Fundie cousins, while some Fundies may attack you because you don’t take the Bible as complete fact.

I got _exactly_ the same result. 42 points.

And I think this was possibly the dumbest “test” I ever took.
