Apr. 20th, 2005 10:58 amWent over to beliefnet.com and took their Belief-o-Matic quiz. I've run through this puppy a few times before and been mildly annoyed at the result because they left out questions like 'my religion should require certain culturally bound practices, languages, etc.', which would have ruled out their usual top choice for me (Sikhism- I like cutting my hair, and I don't know any Punjabi at all). I didn't fiddle as much with the 'very important' versus 'not important' aspect of each question, though, so this was my result this time.

I had to smile just a bit at the top choice, given that I'm going to be talking with the Lutherans next door about their doctrines and stuff really soon. I'm also midly surprised about how high up my native church scored, but I suppose that might have dropped a bit if there had been questions like 'do you believe in Satan at all', 'do you believe in original sin', etc.
