Gee, I’m UU. What a shock. Not.

QtM, UU since 1987

Well, yes, that’s obviously wrong. I don’t want to hijack this thread any further, but I’ve been having trouble finding a good history of Quakerism. If you know of any good ones, could you click on my profile and e-mail me? I’m currently reading Friends for 300 Years, which I find to be a good spiritual history of Quakerism, but it was published in 1950, so it leaves off the last 50 years of development.

No surprises there. I’m in the pews of a conservative, evangelical Protestant congregation every Sunday morning.

100% Liberal Christain Protestant. I guess that makes sense. I’m Episcopalian, and I s’pose I have *some * common sense.

This is what I really am
3. Liberal Quakers (85%)

4. Neo-Pagan (79%)
5. New Age (78%)

I’m a little embasrassed by these

At first I thought it just said “BAH, Faith!” LIke some sort of Scroogular Humanist
7. Mahayana Buddhism (73%)
8. Reform Judaism (72%)
9. Theravada Buddhism (71%)

I didn’t even see what answers hit on all the eastern religions. Must be all that Merton I read in High School.
10. Secular Humanism (66%)
I don’t know what I said to deserve that.

I can live that! Although, if I were chatting with someone and they asked what faith I was and I said, “Secular Humanist” and they asked “what’s that?” I’d have to say, “I dunno.”

Secular Humanism (100%)

I find it comforting somehow that so many have this result as well.

It’s not a huge shocker, I am #2. I figure I lost points in the abortion question (I’m pro, buddhism is nay - we don’t see eye to eye on this one, never will) but I can’t be sure.

  1. Secular Humanism (100%)
  2. Unitarian Universalism (92%)

    My fundamentalist, southern baptist, PETA activist relatives* would freak if they saw this.

100% Secular Humanism, well that was expected. 80% Neo-Pagan? Neo-freaking-Pagan? I hate those guys! Well, the ones I’ve met anyway.

But that’s not even close to the ultimate insult of being labelled as 53% Scientology. Great, 53% of me is either a coldhearted moneygrubbing fraud or a stupid, emotionally frail sucker.

  1. Secular Humanism (100%)
  2. Unitarian Universalism (94%)
  3. Nontheist (79%)
    Mmmm. Would have guessed Nontheist to be 100%

And the winner is…

And to think I even went to a Southern Baptist high school. Well, only after I got kicked out of military school. :o :smiley:

My poor, poor mother… She raised me Catholic, and according to this, I’m twice as much Protestant as Catholic, and not even much of either.

I’m #6, but I suppose I lost points on abortion, environmentalism, violence, and social programs (N/A on all but the first).
