I hope it's okay that I put it here. I just thought this was an interesting one, especially since I always have a hard time defining my faith out loud. I have to say I wasn't that surprised by the top result but some of the others did surprise me.


Do your results surprise you at all? Do you think they fit your beliefs?

I thought it was intriguing too. The Neo-paganism didn't really surprise me either.

I wonder if it will surprise anyone? The Quaker sorta surprised me but not after I read it, it makes sense too.

I am not really surprised by these results, however, I am surprised that Christian Scientist beliefs didn't rank higher for me, AND I am surprised that Scientology rated where it did for me. I figured that would have been lower and Christian Science would have been higher.

I LOVE reading everyone's test results! It definitely gives more insight to people's chosen religion and what religion they "should be" (for lack of a better term). I think it's an awesome way to learn something new about yourself and each other.

The top score on the list below represents the faith that Belief-O-Matic, in its less than infinite wisdom, thinks most closely matches your beliefs. However, even a score of 100% does not mean that your views are all shared by this faith, or vice versa.

Belief-O-Matic then lists another 26 faiths in order of how much they have in common with your professed beliefs. The higher a faith appears on this list, the more closely it aligns with your thinking.

How did the Belief-O-Matic do? Discuss your results on our message boards.

I wondered how I would do as I was raised by an agnostic and an athiest , I believe in reincarnation, karma and that nature has it's own powers if we only knew how to ask for it. My main guiding thought in life is a simple one, Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
