Yeah - and guess what relegion I was of course brought up in.

I don't even know what Jainism is - I suspect it's close no paganism - I'll have to look it up.


sorry, i cant guess what religion you were brought up in !!

& jainism = sort of liek buddhism, only started by Mahavir instead of Buddha.

I turned out to be a confident believer on the Spiritual type portion, though I found many questions lacked choices I could completely agree with. I answered some in the affirmative, anyway. Here is how I scored on Belief-O-Matic:
1. Orthodox Judaism (100%)
2. Islam (90%)
3. Jehovah's Witness (89%)
4. Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) (79%)
5. Sikhism (78%)
6. Eastern Orthodox (72%)
7. Roman Catholic (72%)
8. Jainism (67%)
9. Mainline to Conservative Christian/Protestant (67%)
10. Seventh Day Adventist (66%)
11. Bahá'í Faith (65%)
12. Hinduism (62%)
13. Orthodox Quaker (60%)
14. Reform Judaism (60%)
15. Mahayana Buddhism (39%)
16. Liberal Quakers (37%)
17. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (32%)
18. Theravada Buddhism (31%)
19. Unitarian Universalism (26%)
20. Neo-Pagan (23%)
21. Scientology (18%)
22. New Age (15%)
23. Christian Science (Church of Christ, Scientist) (15%)
24. New Thought (14%)
25. Nontheist (12%)
26. Taoism (8%)
27. Secular Humanism (5%)

I was somewhat surprised at the results, especially since I feel a close kinship with the humanists. But any who have read my posts will understand now why I seem such a . . . Well, whatever! Laughing

it's not quite how i would rank them in terms of my likes and dislikes, but it does reflect accurately my feelings about $cientology so perhaps it has some validity. unitarian "universalist" is apparently aptly named, as far as the a2k membership goes. biggest shock is that it thinks i'm more of a mainline christian than a secular humanist--rather strange result for a "confirmed" agnostic. Confused

It gave me 100% Mormon.

Which surprises me, since most Mormon doctrine was not present.
