Amusingly, I took a “What’s your belief” quiz at Belief.net, and I scored
higher on the Christian scale and also on the “generally spiritual” scale
than three born-again Christians whom I know. Either that test was really
messed up, or they were!

Hmmm, how about none of the above? I am at least a little annoyed by how high
my LDS rating is...feh!
Actually, I consider myself aesthetically a neo-pagan chaos magician/fool
with an abhorrence for dogmatic wiccans.

Haha! That was a great test. I out-neo-paganed the neo-pagan! I see the
religion I was initially exposed to (inflicted with?) way down near the bottom.
Interesting results. The religion I was initially raised in (inflicted with) is
way down near the bottom, and Neo-Pagan, Liberal Christian, and Liberal Quaker
near the top, as I expected. I was surprised at New Age, though I suppose that
borrows from Neo-Pagan. Buddhism and Jainism come in from my study of eastern
art (both of which I thought more interesting than their predecessor, Hinduism).
Why the heck Scientology is not down there with Jehovah’s Witness, I’ll never
know.
As to Unitarian Universalism: if I thought the ultimate truth was a retired
badger suffering from halitosis and named Schwartz, the test would still read
100% for that faith, so there! :-)
Why Scientology isn’t at the bottom along with Jehovah’s Witness I’ll never
know.
Can anyone (answering legitimately) out-pagan me?
