I am LDS After All

I took a survey yesterday that asked questions regarding religious beliefs. The idea is that after you?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢ve taken the quiz, it will analyse your answers and tell you which religious movement your beliefs more closely resemble.

Not surprising to anyone?¢‚Ǩ‚Äùwell except maybe those who think I question too much or who consider me a heretic?¢‚Ǩ‚Äùthe quiz said my 100 percent of my beliefs corresponded with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Here are the remaining findings.

  1. Jehovah’s Witness (97%)
  2. Bah?ɬ°’?ɬ? Faith (94%)
  3. Orthodox Judaism (83%)
  4. Sikhism (77%)
  5. Mainline – Liberal Christian Protestants (72%)
  6. Mainline – Conservative Christian Protestant (71%)
  7. Islam (70%)
  8. Jainism (69%)
  9. Liberal Quakers (62%)
  10. Hinduism (60%)
  11. Eastern Orthodox (58%)
  12. Roman Catholic (58%)
  13. Reform Judaism (57%)
  14. Seventh Day Adventist (57%)
  15. Orthodox Quaker (56%)
  16. Unitarian Universalism (55%)
  17. Mahayana Buddhism (52%)
  18. Theravada Buddhism (51%)
  19. Christian Science (Church of Christ, Scientist) (39%)
  20. Neo-Pagan (36%)
  21. New Age (33%)
  22. New Thought (25%)
  23. Taoism (25%)
  24. Secular Humanism (23%)
  25. Scientology (21%)
  26. Non-theist (19%)

Some interesting results. For example, I find it interesting that my answers put me closer to Baha?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢I, Judaism and Sikhism than it does to mainline Christian Protestants. I also found it interesting that my answers put me closer to Islam, Jainim, Quakers and Hinduism than it did to Catholicisim.

  1. I came up with a 100% match with mainline Protestantism and only a 92% match with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints!

    What????

    I can’t see what caused the result but it makes no sense to me.

  3. :o I really don’t think Michael is a match with anything. He doesn’t appear to even read the lengthy quotes he cuts and pastes several times in succession.

  5. 1. LDS (100%)
    2. Jehovah’s Witness (91%)
    3. Bahai (88%)
    4. Orthodox Judaism (88%)
    5. Mainline – Conservative Christian Protestant (86%)

    I find it odd that there were no questions on the coming of a Messiah or a redeemer, and the questions regarding who is God found me perplexed. My answer wasn’t really there, as it would have been that there are many Gods but only one God as to us here on Earth (the Father), with associates being the Son and the Holy Ghost. But that worship is only to the Father.

    Should have had questions regarding praying to intercessors as well.

  6. Kim Siever said: Maybe you’re really Michael Elzey.

    I had a good chuckle out of that one. You made my day.
