    Surfing through the site today, I happened across a site which someone listed as theirs. Let me say, right now, I'm not saying who's site. I'm not (and I'm sure they're not) going to stop you from trying to find it.

    Anyway, that was the disclaimer, and this is the point: That site had a pretty cool link on it, which helped you 'find' your religion. I took the quiz. It turns out that the religion that most closely matches mine is:

    Unitarian Universalism. Crazy name or what? I do agree with most of their beliefs though. Hot on it's heels was Reform Judaism with 87% and Secular Humanism (I forget the score for that one).

    Without further ado:Step right up, don't be shy!

    Me... Secular Humanism (100%)

    Amen to that!

    I must admit, that's fairly accurate.
    Why evil? No concept of "evil."
    Undeserved suffering: No spiritual reasons, but rather a matter of human vulnerability to misfortune, illness, and victimization.

    That test was pretty darned good actually.

    Yeah, that was a very well-made test.
    Good choice of topics, Jarinor.

    100% Neo-Paganism,
    87% New Age,
    83% Mahayanah Buddhism.

    Interesting that all the answers I got had "Belief differs" in at least 3 catagories.

    Methinks I got the waffle answer :p

    Unitarian Universalism. But seriously, I don't think about such things in my life and I don't care how some webpage perceives me.

    Sheriff's back!!!

    It's interesting, the religion I listed on my census form last year, Roman Catholic, came up last for me...Weird or what? I rated 13% as a R.C. Mormons, Jehovah's Witnesses were higher...hell, the Liberal Quakers were high on my list! If I can be bothered, I'll go through the test again and list my full thing.

    Jinxed, the webpage doesn't have an opinion of you. What the page does is help identify what religion agrees with you the most.

    Unitarian Universalism- So how do you have a religion composed of atheists and agnostics?

    Whatever, I think it was made for people to go "wow, so I'm like this? Hmmm".

    yeah, but reform judaism is sort of a catchall... as long as you believe in god and not in christ, you can believe anything else you want...

    Conservative Christian fits me. Dunno 'bout that Quaker. I ain't no quaker.

    U guys know that the Shakers (form of quaker) don't believe in having sex or procreation? Damn, there's u a religion that has no future... There is only like 5 of the original Shakers left in the world in a New England state. They are old. My family knows a couple of them.

    You're thinking of Secular Humanism, and the idea is to get the social aspects of the church without the religious ones.

    Oh this thing again. Yawn.

    Of course this sort of 'test' or inventory is predicated on the idea that truth is a selectable commodity. A notion that runs counter to a number of the traditions/systems listed.
