I wouldn't have identified myself as a Quaker. Orthodox and Catholic are believable, as I've always been on the 'High Church' wing of the Anglican faith.

I was baptised a Roman Catholic and went to Catholic schools, recently I've started feeling more agnostic.

I'm quite surprised by my results as I dont feel very protestant.



Maybe I should take the test again as my beliefs have slightly changed.

Am I the only one who feels the term "Liberal Quaker" is an oxymoron?

I don't know. I've always thought of Quakers as being quite flighty. Practically agnostic.

2. Unitarian Universalism (89%)
3. Nontheist (78%)
4. Liberal Quakers (75%)
5. Neo-Pagan (71%)
6. Theravada Buddhism (65%)
7. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (58%)
8. Orthodox Quaker (54%)
9. New Age (52%)
10. Taoism (45%)
11. Reform Judaism (43%)
12. Sikhism (43%)
13. Mahayana Buddhism (42%)
14. Bahá'í Faith (40%)
15. Jainism (36%)
16. Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) (35%)

20. Hinduism (27%)
21. Christian Science (Church of Christ, Scientist) (25%)
22. New Thought (25%)
23. Eastern Orthodox (25%)
24. Islam (25%)
25. Orthodox Judaism (25%)
26. Roman Catholic (25%)
27. Jehovah's Witness (18%)

I wonder why I did that test, except for having something to post here Wink
As for "liberal Quakers", I've been quite surprised to see them come up so high on my list, but they say "liberal" Quakers are, indeed, practically agnostics. In contrast I wonder what I should have answered to get a 100% non-theist, as I don't think I mentionned God in any of my answers...

I'm also surprised they don't have at least some "liberal Islam" answer, as there is probably as much diversity in Islam as there is in Christianity.

I would appear to be a Unitarian Universalist. Aye right. Who comes up with this stuff? Laughing Laughing

Mind you, I'm overjoyed seeing roman catholic almost off the scale at #26! That's the one I got made a fully fledged member of when I was too young to have a say in the matter. Cool Laughing
