Which religion am I?
Submitted by mediumgeek on Tue, 21/03/2006 - 08:52
I just couldn't resist after seeing one of the quiz in Tiram's latest blog entry. Anyone surprised?
| You scored as agnosticism. 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.

Which religion is the right one for you?

I had to take the test myself :-)
I can see satanism did quite well here too! Perhaps I should get some devil-horns for my office also? But only after I install my giant Buddha statue!
atheism 75%
agnosticism 67%
Buddhism 63%
Satanism 50%
Judaism 38%
Paganism 33%
Christianity 29%
Hinduism 21%
Islam 17%
Just borrow mine
I am definately a bigger devil than you;-). But you are welcome to borrow my horns... if I get to worship you Buddah statue. Just beaware that I might try to blow it up...
This and that
I am not as convinced in my niceness as you are Tiram... but thanks for the confidence:-). I am also assuming you haven't seen my about section]:).
I have to agree with the Merriam Webster definition for an agnostic. Btw. good case you made with not believing in your co-workers desk:-).
Thanks for that article John! It is good to know that there are people willing to put their neck on the line to try to create dialogue and peace in this world. I feel like I only read negative articles these days so it was nice to see something a bit nicer.
Impressive Daniel! 100% atheist. I don't have full faith in the test either. It was also a bit confusing at times I felt and asked questions which I had hard time answering
Horns and all ...
I still say you're a nicer person than I am -- which isn't necessarily saying much, of course ...!

As Cardigans put it..
"I need some fine wine and you need to be nicer."
I opted for smart ...
Nice or smart?

Me too!
Smart definately!! I don't think I am nice very often but in those rare instances when I am, it is usually at the wrong moments and I end out loosing something because of that. Maybe if I was smarter I would know when to be nice:-).
Maybe we should try to find a online quiz which shows how nice/bad you are?
Good idea :)
There must be a test/quiz about that somewhere! If you find one, I'll bet you a beer you'll test as nicer than me! :)
I will take that bet!
Sure I will take that bet:-)! I dug up the old We want your soul which used to put a rather low value on my soul but unfortunately I got an error when I was about to get my results. Need to do some google searches later today...
Hm, me too
I got an error when I tried it. You'll have to find another test if you want to have a go at earning that beer;)

Mmmm beer
Yes, it seems to be down all the time:-( I remember getting a really bad price for my soul. Hmmm... maybe when I am out of beer I will be motivated enough to look for another one.
Religion
I would have guessed agnostic, but I managed to get 100% atheism in the test. Close enough, but I doubt that the test can clearly distinguish between all the religions.

About agnosticism
About the definition: "Agnosticism is a philosophy that God's existence cannot be proven."
Isn't that the whole *point* of belief? That you believe, regardless of proof or no proof? I can prove that my colleague Erik's desk exists (to anyone but a stupid-stubborn philosopher!), but I don't go around *believing* in it.
Anyhow, Merriam-Webster he say, among other things, that a a broad definition of an agnostic is:
"One who is not committed to believing in either the existence or the nonexistence of God or a god."

Good morning Medium!
Been unable to post in a while and short on time this morning. You know my keen interest in the religious turmoil around the globe and I wanted to share this story. It is a tiny glimmer of hope in the darkness. I will try to take the quiz later in the week.

Hope all is well with you...

I think I'm a bit surprised that you got 54% Satanism! (You're much nicer as a person than I am:) I'm pretty sure the answers must be weighted wrong.
