Religious? On my blog?!?

Rog posted in

I hate getting religious, especially online, because I feel my belief structure is unique and personal and I'm generally against religious evangelism.

This Belief-O-Matic however, seemed like an interesting and thought provoking toy. Thanks to Latheos for pointing it out.

I was raised as a Baptist/Brethren (evangelical protestant) Christian and much to the dismay of some of my friends (I'm sure), some of that retains, but it's fascinating that my beliefs now most closely resemble Quakers and note how Neo-Pagan is pretty high up there too.

Your Results:

  1. Liberal Quakers (100%)
  2. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (99%)
  3. Unitarian Universalism (95%)
  4. Orthodox Quaker (90%)
  5. Neo-Pagan (88%)
  6. Mahayana Buddhism (82%)
  7. New Age (75%)
  8. Taoism (75%)

You know, I've considered it because I've liked what I've heard about it.

But I don't think I'm ready yet for any kind of religious fellowship. In this area more than others, I'm rather private.

Thanks for the refreshing look at my beliefs. Being raised Seventh Day Adventist when young(tho I have not practiced those beliefs in some time) I was quite surprised that what I believe now resembles Liberal Quakers.
I also note that you and I share the first three results with only a variance of 1% on 2 and 3.
I believe that spirituality is a very personal thing and that choosing a specific religion is not necessary to being a good and loving human being. I think the best thing I learned from my days of youth and religion is one line, "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you"
