A Quiz: "Which religion is the right one for you?"
 
So I was just surfing along, and saw a link to one of those quizzes that supposedly tell you your deepest darkest secrets. The topic of the quiz was "Which religion is the right one for you?", so it was something that has been on my mind after participating in a couple of the Religion & Spirituality threads. (here and here)

So what was the one it picked for me? Satanism.

WTF?!?!

Quote:

Your beliefs most closely resemble those of Satanism! Before you scream, do a bit of research on it. To be a Satanist, you don't actually have to believe in Satan. Satanism generally focuses upon the spiritual advancement of the self, rather than upon submission to a deity or a set of moral codes. Do some research if you immediately think of the satanic cult stereotype. Your beliefs may also resemble those of earth-based religions such as paganism.

Satanism 79%
atheism 71%
agnosticism 67%
Buddhism 58%
Hinduism 42%
Paganism 38%
Christianity 25%
Islam 25%
Judaism 13%
Now I know these things aren't exactly scientific... and in this example, I think these quizzes are user submitted. But in a million years, I would never had expected *that* religion to pop up.

Now I was one of the people who immediately thought about a "Satanic Cult"... So I have some research to do.

So I'm just wondering... how accurate is it for the other people here on TFP? Please post the results and whether you feel that it is an accurate reflection of your religious beliefs.

You could also try the Belief-O-Matic by Beliefnet.com, which is 20 questions. Lighthearted ("Warning: Belief-O-Matic™ assumes no legal liability for the ultimate fate of your soul."), but attempts to be accurate.

Kinda of sums me up, but think i could do better than it. But probably believe in some form of god more than i don't believe there is one. I'm all a little confused, and probably don't know enough about other religions to understand their relevence to me.

Now i took the other test. here it is


1. Unitarian Universalism (100%)
2. New Thought (96%)
3. Hinduism (91%)
4. Neo-Pagan (91%)
5. New Age (86%)
6. Liberal Quakers (84%)
7. Mahayana Buddhism (83%)
8. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (82%)
9. Scientology (73%)
10. Theravada Buddhism (60%)
11. Christian Science (Church of Christ, Scientist) (59%)
12. Reform Judaism (58%)
13. Orthodox Quaker (57%)
14. Taoism (55%)
15. Sikhism (54%)
16. Secular Humanism (50%)
17. Jainism (47%)
18. Bah�'� Faith (34%)
19. Nontheist (29%)
20. Orthodox Judaism (29%)
21. Seventh Day Adventist (24%)
22. Mainline to Conservative Christian/Protestant (23%)
23. Eastern Orthodox (18%)
24. Roman Catholic (18%)
25. Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) (11%)
26. Islam (11%)
27. Jehovah's Witness (11%)


What does it all mean, looks like the two test turn out slightly different things but seems to be some commonalities.

I find the results from that one a bit more... copacetic.

Not sure what the first three are doing in there (Quaker?!?!) but 4-8 are right in line with the direction I'm currently going in....

Coppertop 05-19-2005 11:16 AM

83% agnosticism
63% satanism/paganism

Sounds about right. If you want to know about satanism, read The Satanic Bible by LeVey. It's not what most people assume it is.

You are an agnostic. Though it is generally taken that agnostics neither believe nor disbelieve in God, it is possible to be a theist or atheist in addition to an agnostic. Agnostics don't believe it is possible to prove the existence of God (nor lack thereof). Agnosticism is a philosophy that God's existence cannot be proven. Some say it is possible to be agnostic and follow a religion; however, one cannot be a devout believer if he or she does not truly believe.

agnosticism 83%

Satanism 71%

atheism 67%

Islam 63%

Buddhism 50%

Paganism 50%

I'm wondering if Unitarian Universalism is at the top of everyone's lists... (ie: it's so unirversal that it works for anyone of any belief).

Ambient1 05-19-2005 11:27 AM

Ok, thanks to Redlemon's suggestion, I found another quiz on the belief-o-matic site... "What's Your Spiritual Type?"

And I loved the questions it was asking.

Here it is: http://www.beliefnet.com/section/qui...D=&surveyID=27

My results were:
Quote:

What's Your Spiritual Type?

You scored 43, on a scale of 25 to 100. Here's how to interpret your score:
25 - 29 Hardcore Skeptic -- but interested or you wouldn't be here!
30 - 39 Spiritual Dabbler -- Open to spiritual matters but far from impressed
40 - 49 Active Spiritual Seeker – Spiritual but turned off by organized religion
50 - 59 Spiritual Straddler – One foot in traditional religion, one foot in free-form spirituality
60 - 69 Old-fashioned Seeker -- Happy with my religion but searching for the right expression of it
70 - 79 Questioning Believer – You have doubts about the particulars but not the Big Stuff
80 - 89 Confident Believer – You have little doubt you’ve found the right path
90 - 100 Candidate for Clergy
Yep! That's very accurate.

Some of the questions really made me think, and put how I was feel very well into words.

TheShadow 05-19-2005 11:30 AM

The quiz, surprisingly enough, managed to [to an extent] accurately depict my "religious beliefs". At the moment, I'm in somewhat of a phase of transition, and while I think I would have been 100% atheist come a year ago, I've become somewhat more open to the possibility of something greater, or some sort of after life:

Agnosticism - 88%
Buddhism - 67%
Atheism - 58%

Your views are most similar to those of Christianity. Do more research on Christianity and possibly consider being baptized and accepting Jesus, if you aren't already Christian. Christianity is the second of the Abrahamic faiths; it follows Judaism and is followed by Islam. It differs in its belief of Jesus, as not a prophet nor historical figure, but as God in human form. The Holy Trinity is the concept that God takes three forms: the Father, the Son (Jesus), and the Holy Ghost (sometimes called Holy Spirit). Jesus taught the idea of instead of seeking revenge, one should love his or her neighbors and enemies. Christians believe that Jesus died on the cross to save humankind and forgive people's sins.

Christianity 79%
Islam 50%
Buddhism 42%
Pretty damn accurate for me.

ngdawg 05-19-2005 12:44 PM

First quiz:You scored as atheism.



You are... an atheist, though you probably already knew this. Also, you probably have several people praying daily for your soul. Instead of simply being "nonreligious," atheists strongly believe in the lack of existence of a higher being, or God.

atheism

Paganism

Satanism

79%
Buddhism

Second quiz:. Unitarian Universalism (100%)
2. Secular Humanism (98%)
3. Liberal Quakers (93%)
4. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (83%)
5. Neo-Pagan (80%)
6. Theravada Buddhism (73%)
7. New Age (70%)
8. Mahayana Buddhism (64%)
9. Taoism (62%)
10. Nontheist (60%)
11. Reform Judaism (54%)
12. Bahá'í Faith (51%)
13. Orthodox Quaker (48%)
14. Christian Science (Church of Christ, Scientist) (48%)
15. New Thought (48%)
16. Scientology (46%)

Took guccilvr's test (will take others when I get more time):

You scored as paganism. Your beliefs are most closely aligned with those of paganism, Wicca, or a similar earth-based religion. You may also follow a Native American religion.

agnosticism 75%
Paganism 75%
Hinduism 54%
Islam 50%
Buddhism 50%

Sweet, a pagan!! Though personally I think I fall more into the agnostic lot these days... my scores there were equal. Great fun, Ambient1.

With the rewording on the first test, my score was just slightly different, but Paganism and Satanism still ranked high. With that in mind, I will honestly say that to label the things I believe to be is limiting and misguided. Here's the results of the revised quiz:
You scored as Satanism.

Ok, just took the test. Since I define myself as agnostic atheist (I don't believe in a God, but I cannot be certain that I'm right on this), some of the results make sense.

I can see how I scored highly on the Satanism scale, after reading the explanation. Though it seems their definition of Satanism is a bit odd..

If I were to follow any religious path or order, the First Church of Satan is, in fact, the most appealing schol of thought. I do not, however, believe that any institutionalized religion or spiritual collective is in any way beneficial to humanity (except, perhaps, for some small self-focused groups like the Shaolin monks and other groups that focus on the improvement of the inner self and the enhancement of the mind.) If you think that Satanism is in any way related to or dependent on devil-worship, human sacrifice, or any of that other fun TV and Movie stuff, please either take some time to educate yourself or go talk with my mom. Modern Satanism has nothing to do with traditional Infernalism and Luciferianism. If you read Anton LaVey's work, be aware of the racist overtones and intolerance that have been completely rejected by most modern Satanic groups.

Okay, took a 3rd quiz!! And also not surprised, though I expected to have a slightly lower score. Ironic, given that 5-7 years ago I would have landed smack in the 80's-90s!

What's Your Spiritual Type?

You scored 57, on a scale of 25 to 100. Here's how to interpret your score:

25 - 29 Hardcore Skeptic -- but interested or you wouldn't be here!
30 - 39 Spiritual Dabbler -- Open to spiritual matters but far from impressed
40 - 49 Active Spiritual Seeker – Spiritual but turned off by organized religion
50 - 59 Spiritual Straddler – One foot in traditional religion, one foot in free-form spirituality
60 - 69 Old-fashioned Seeker -- Happy with my religion but searching for the right expression of it
70 - 79 Questioning Believer – You have doubts about the particulars but not the Big Stuff
80 - 89 Confident Believer – You have little doubt you’ve found the right path
90 - 100 Candidate for Clergy

I must say I had alot of trouble with the limitations of explaining supernatural events like angels... there were two sets of 5 questions that I felt really limited in response views..

You scored as Buddhism.



Your beliefs most closely resemble those of Buddhism. Do more research on Buddhism and possibly consider becoming Buddhist, if you are not already. In Buddhism, there are Four Noble Truths: (1) Life is suffering. (2) All suffering is caused by ignorance of the nature of reality and the craving, attachment, and grasping that result from such ignorance. (3) Suffering can be ended by overcoming ignorance and attachment. (4) The path to the suppression of suffering is the Noble Eightfold Path, which consists of right views, right intention, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right-mindedness, and right contemplation. These eight are usually divided into three categories that base the Buddhist faith: morality, wisdom, and samadhi, or concentration. In Buddhism, there is no hierarchy, nor caste system; the Buddha taught that one's spiritual worth is not based on birth.

Some say it is possible to be agnostic and follow a religion; however, one cannot be a devout believer if he or she does not truly believe.<br><br><table border='0' width='300' cellspacing='0' cellpadding='0'><tr><td><p><font face='Arial' size='1'>agnosticism</font></p></td><td><table border='1' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0' width='92' bgcolor='#dddddd'><tr><td></td></tr></table></td><td><font face='Arial' size='1'>92%</font></td></tr><tr><td><p><font face='Arial' size='1'>Buddhism</font></p></td><td><table border='1' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0' width='71' bgcolor='#dddddd'><tr><td></td></tr></table></td><td><font face='Arial' size='1'>71%</font></td></tr><tr><td><p><font face='Arial' size='1'>atheism</font></p></td><td><table border='1' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0' width='63' bgcolor='#dddddd'><tr><td></td></tr></table></td><td><font face='Arial' size='1'>63%</font></td></tr><tr><td><p><font face='Arial' size='1'>Paganism</font></p></td><td><table border='1' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0' width='54' bgcolor='#dddddd'><tr><td></td></tr></table></td><td><font face='Arial' size='1'>54%</font></td></tr><tr><td><p><font face='Arial' size='1'>Hinduism</font></p></td><td><table border='1' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0' width='50' bgcolor='#dddddd'><tr><td></td></tr></table></td><td><font face='Arial' size='1'>50%</font></td></tr><tr><td><p><font face='Arial' size='1'>Satanism</font></p></td><td><table border='1' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0' width='46' bgcolor='#dddddd'><tr><td></td></tr></table></td><td><font face='Arial' size='1'>46%</font></td></tr><tr><td><p><font face='Arial' size='1'>Judaism</font></p></td><td><table border='1' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0' width='33' bgcolor='#dddddd'><tr><td></td></tr></table></td><td><font face='Arial' size='1'>33%</font></td></tr><tr><td><p><font face='Arial' size='1'>Islam</font></p></td><td><table border='1' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0' width='33' bgcolor='#dddddd'><tr><td></td></tr></table></td><td><font face='Arial' size='1'>33%</font></td></tr><tr><td><p><font face='Arial' size='1'>Christianity</font></p></td><td><table border='1' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0' width='25' bgcolor='#dddddd'><tr><td></td></tr></table></td><td><font face='Arial' size='1'>25%</font></td></tr></td></tr></table><br><a href='http://quizfarm.com/test.php?q_id=10907'>Which religion is the right one for you?

OK, I took the first test. I didn't score too high on anything. I'm now questioning myself on everything.

Christianity, huge surprise.

And I agree that Satanists don't have to worship Satan, they just have to worship themselves above all else...which was Satan's sin, and hardly a ringing endorsement, IMO.

You scored as <b>Buddhism</b>. Your beliefs most closely resemble those of Buddhism. Do more research on Buddhism and possibly consider becoming Buddhist, if you are not already.

Buddhism 83%
Islam 38%
Christianity 33%
agnosticism 29%
Paganism 25%
Judaism 21%
Satanism 17%
atheism 13%
Hinduism 4%

You scored 52, on a scale of 25 to 100. Here's how to interpret your score:

I think that both of the quizzes are pretty accurate even though its hard to find a middle ground in them.. each question clearly has one answer per religion.

FngKestrel 05-20-2005 09:44 AM

wtf? why is my post in Ruse's post?

First quiz:
atheism 83%
Satanism 71%
agnosticism 54%
Buddhism 46%
Paganism 29%
Christianity 29%
Judaism 25%
Islam 17%
Hinduism 8%

Although, I consider myself more agnostic than atheist. I think the difference between the two are how bitter I am when I wake up in the morning.

Second quiz results:

1. Unitarian Universalism (100%)
2. Secular Humanism (93%)
3. Liberal Quakers (93%)
4. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (92%)
5. Neo-Pagan (77%)
6. Nontheist (69%)
7. Theravada Buddhism (66%)
8. Christian Science (Church of Christ, Scientist) (63%)
9. Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) (60%)
10. New Age (57%)
11. Reform Judaism (55%)
12. Bah�'� Faith (53%)
13. Taoism (52%)
14. New Thought (51%)
15. Sikhism (48%)
16. Mahayana Buddhism (47%)
17. Scientology (47%)
18. Jehovah's Witness (46%)
19. Mainline to Conservative Christian/Protestant (44%)
20. Orthodox Quaker (41%)
21. Hinduism (34%)
22. Jainism (32%)
23. Seventh Day Adventist (29%)
24. Eastern Orthodox (25%)
25. Islam (25%)
26. Orthodox Judaism (25%)
27. Roman Catholic (25%)

Would not have guessed Catholic at the bottom there.

I guess most people would score highly on agnosticism, atheism, paganism, stuff like that. I get the feeling that most devout Christians or Muslims or Hindus wouldn't bother taking a test like this (with the exception of those in this thread so far) but those who don't follow any of the major religions would be interested to see what a test should decide? Is that too sweeping, or is there a bit of truth? I wonder.

Anyway, I won't bother copying all the results, but I tied 71% with Islam and Satanism.

cyrnel 05-20-2005 12:27 PM

Took it this a.m. and scored high as an atheist. Tried again after lunch and got 73% agnostic.

If Ruse casts another evil gaze and sucks in my post I'll have to modify my responses.
