    I got a 100% match as a Liberal Quaker, with 98% Reform Judaism.
    I hate the quakers.

    Alright... so I want you to examine this situation, and tell me what you notice. I work in an IT department. We fix computers. We're knee-deep in technology, every day. Quite literally on some days. One of the guys I work with has a really big beard, drives a porsche, and just recently bought a straw hat. Since then, he's been asked by almost every person we work with, if he's Amish. Oh, and everyone knows who we are. There's no mistaking us for other departments, or anything. We're IT. We wear no badges, but everyone still knows.

    That's pretty obvious. Beard+Straw Hat=Amish. Forget that combustion engines and computers are anathema to your everyday Amish man...and that people in your department already know who he is.

    Will do my best.
    Whoa...no way? YOU got hired for a legitimate job?
    Don't confuse dismantle and fixing. My friend does that a lot. The key difference is whether or not the green light turns on when you hit power.
    I see the problem. He's actually one of the owners in disquise. Noone pays their workers enough to buy a porsche.
    You're in IT. NOONE knows you exist. It's a sad fact, but everyone knows it's the grimlins that both break and fix computers.
    Obviously. Noone can mistake a department they don't know exists, let alone mistake the unknown workers that work in the unknown department.
    They probably think you're tourists or customers, not employees.
    Sorry, you sound too much like my father.

    I believe she's a good ol' fashioned Christian. Well, no, not anywhere close. I think she's just a Christian, lol.

    Anything that depicts me as a New Age hippie with Jewish tendencies is broken.

    The 0% JV comes as a relief though.

    It's also very weird, Example: I have 91% in the Roman Catholic, but I have nothing in common with that religion. This probally means, that the answers in this test has too many the same links to each religions.

    Are you a monotheist? If so, you have a lot in common with Roman Catholicism already.

    Do you believe that God is composed of three parts, aka that God is constituted of a Trinity? If so, again, more in common with Roman Catholicism.

    DO you believe that Jesus is the son of God? Etc.
