Belief-O-Matic

Click here for an interesting little survey from the folks over at Beliefnet. It'll give you some insight as to where on the map your beliefs put you. Enjoy!

By the way, here's my results. Not perfect (the top 3 are not exactly the order I'd expect), but it's within an acceptable margin of error...

1. Eastern Orthodox (100%), 2. Roman Catholic (100%) , 3. Mainline to Conservative Christian/Protestant (97%) , 4. Orthodox Quaker (92%), 5. Seventh Day Adventist (88%) , 6. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (75%), 7. Orthodox Judaism (68%) , 8. Islam (61%), 9. Hinduism (58%), 10. Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) (56%) , 11. Liberal Quakers (51%), 12. Bahá'í Faith (51%) , 13. Sikhism (47%) , 14. Jehovah's Witness (41%), 15. Unitarian Universalism (41%), 16. Reform Judaism (36%), 17. Jainism (35%), 18. Mahayana Buddhism (26%), 19. Neo-Pagan (25%), 20. Theravada Buddhism (25%), 21. Christian Science (Church of Christ, Scientist) (19%) , 22. New Age (18%), 23. Nontheist (18%), 24. Secular Humanism (16%), 25. Taoism (14%), 26. Scientology (13%), 27. New Thought (13%)

Well I took the test and came out a 100% Morman and 93% Conservative Christian (which would be the correct answer for me) pretty interesting also is the book written by Christian Jews?

Jewish Backgrounds of the New Testament isn't written by a Jew, but Dr. Scott has obviously done his homework, and then some.

Again, it's densely packed writing (his bibliography is huge) and thus not for the faint of heart. But he really has captured the relevant historical data and packaged it in a form that can be understood.
