Here's my results, answering all as accurately as I could, considering many of the
flawed answer choices:
1. Secular Humanism (100%)
2. Unitarian Universalism (99%)
3. Liberal Quakers (90%)
4. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (86%)
5. Nontheist (71%)
6. Neo-Pagan (66%)
7. Theravada Buddhism (64%)
8. Bahá'í Faith (56%)
9. New Age (54%)
10. Taoism (49%)
11. Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) (47%)
12. Orthodox Quaker (45%)
13. Mahayana Buddhism (44%)
14. Christian Science (Church of Christ, Scientist) (44%)
15. Reform Judaism (42%)
16. Jehovah's Witness (34%)
17. New Thought (34%)
18. Mainline to Conservative Christian/Protestant (33%)
19. Jainism (31%)
20. Sikhism (30%)
21. Scientology (29%)
22. Seventh Day Adventist (19%)
23. Hinduism (18%)
24. Eastern Orthodox (15%)
25. Islam (15%)
26. Orthodox Judaism (15%)
27. Roman Catholic (15%)
The flawed answer choices were the reason that ANY "major" religion got anything
over about 20%. LSD at 47%? Ha!
But I somehow out pagan-ed Hoppy ;-)
