The Belief-o-Matic Quiz

So there's this quiz on the net called the "Belief-o-Matic Quiz".  It's done by beliefnet.com.  I've taken it a few times, and I always come up with the same top answers.  So here's the one I did tonight.  The answers, by the way, are the faiths that fit with what YOU believe already, not what you should believe.  Which for me is great, since that's how I found my way to Islam - by finding a faith that fit with what I already believed, not trying to mush the beliefs of a faith into myself.



1. Orthodox Judaism (100%)
2. Islam (98%)
3. Reform Judaism (93%)
4. Baha'i Faith (81%)
5. Sikhism (81%)
6. Jainism (71%)
7. Liberal Quakers (68%)
8. Orthodox Quaker (66%)
9. Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) (61%)
10. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (57%)
11. Jehovah's Witness (57%)
12. Unitarian Universalism (55%)
13. Seventh Day Adventist (55%)
14. Mainline to Conservative Christian/Protestant (54%)
15. Mahayana Buddhism (50%)
16. Hinduism (47%)
17. Neo-Pagan (47%)
18. Eastern Orthodox (42%)
19. Roman Catholic (42%)
20. Theravada Buddhism (38%)
21. New Age (38%)
22. Scientology (37%)
23. Secular Humanism (30%)
24. New Thought (29%)
25. Christian Science (Church of Christ, Scientist) (26%)
26. Taoism (25%)
27. Nontheist (21%)


I always end up with Orthodox Judaism and Islam flipping back and forth.  So it makes sense that one of my best friends is an Orthodox Jewish woman who I love like my own sister.  I always have to chuckle that the faith that I was raised with usually falls 10 or lower - in this case 14.  Middle to conservative Christianity - Christianity in general - and I just were not a good fit.  


But this is my Belief-O-Matic results for this time around :)
