Let's see how I do this time:

1. Neo-Pagan (100%)

No surprises there.

2. Unitarian Universalism (92%)

Not surprising either.

3. Mahayana Buddhism (80%)

This one always throws me . . . I think of my beliefs as being pretty firmly opposed to Buddhism's.

4. New Age (79%)

Pronounced to rhyme with "sewage." We have a little bit in common, but not too much.

5. Liberal Quakers (72%)

Another surprise, although it would have been less of one back in my total nonviolence phase.

6. Jainism (71%)

Do what? Okay, some good ideas, but any religion that wants its avatars to be celibate . . .

7. Theravada Buddhism (69%)

See #3.

8. Secular Humanism (68%)

Is this a real "faith"? I always thought it was the umbrella term for everything the fundies hated. At any rate, I'm a religious humanist, not a secular one.

9. Reform Judaism (66%)

Okay, I'll buy 2/3 compatible with Reform.

10. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (62%)

I don't know whether I buy this or not. I could probably believe I have about three-fifths in common with the most liberal Episcopalians and ELCA Lutherans I ever met.

11. Sikhism (59%)

Okay, now we're getting silly.

12. Hinduism (54%)

I would have thought this would have rated higher.

13. Bahá'í Faith (53%)
14. New Thought (53%)


Don't know enough about these to comment.

15. Taoism (49%)

Again, one I would have thought would score higher.

16. Nontheist (48%)

Feh. The only thing that separates a monotheist from an atheist is a single god. ;)

17. Scientology (47%)

I'm embarrassed that this is even this high on the list . . .

18. Orthodox Judaism (46%)
19. Orthodox Quaker (41%)
20. Islam (35%)


Nothing surprising about these, unless it's Orthodox Judaism scoring this high.

21. Christian Science (Church of Christ, Scientist) (29%)

Not surprised this is low, but a little shocked that it's below both Scientology and Islam . . .

22. Mainline to Conservative Christian/Protestant (22%)

Again, a little suprised this is actually below Islam.

23. Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) (20%)
24. Eastern Orthodox (18%)
25. Roman Catholic (18%)


And I'm baffled that these are below mainline Protestantism; I know I have more in common with Father R. and Father H. than with any of the WELS pastors I've had.

26. Seventh Day Adventist (14%)
27. Jehovah's Witness (5%)


Yeah, no surprises there. I wonder what I have in common at all with the JWs?
