Matches over 50%:
1. Unitarian Universalism (100%)2. Liberal Quakers (95%) 3. Neo-Pagan (87%) 4. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (87%) 5. New Age (86%) 6. New Thought (86%) 7.

Secular Humanism (59%) 15. Bah' Faith (52%) 16. Sikhism (50%) I guess I need to find a liberal Protestant new-age new-thought Quaker Church so I can gather with kindred spirits. Or if I cant find one, a Unitarian Church will do, obviously the'll take anyone, even me.

It would be interesting to know what belief came in dead last for you as well.
Mine was 'Jehovah's Witness'... which reminds me of a joke! Q. What do you get when you cross a Jehovah's Witness with a Unitarian? A. Someone who knocks on your door and asks you what it's all about. Edited by Archer Opterix, : Added joke. Archer All species are transitional.

all returns over 50%
1. Secular Humanism (100%) 2. Unitarian Universalism (100%) 3. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (95%) 4. Liberal Quakers (92%) 5. Nontheist (74%) 6. Neo-Pagan (64%) 7. Theravada Buddhism (62%) 8. Bah' Faith (56%) 9. New Age (53%) resonably predictable abe-- THough I do have to question their scoring as surely the questions regarding the existance of a god/s should exclude some of these as being matches.... But I guess it was interesting to how close some standpoints are despite that one cruical point. Edited by ohnhai, : Added comment after the results

Of all the people polled so far
12 out of 13 have UU within the top two choices. only one is below the 90% level. 9 out of 13 have secular humanism within the top two choices. 9 of 13 have both UU and SH within the top two choices. Ringo's results were not included in this--he was testing the system, and ended up with a bunch of religious choices being equal, and at 100%.[abe: ringo's second result's are now being included] just thought you all might find this interesting.

kuresu writes: Ringo's results were not included in this--he was testing the system, and ended up with a bunch of religious choices being equal, and at 100%. I suspect that means that the author(s) of the test don't know anything about Baha'is, Christian Scientists, Mormons or Jehovah's Witnesses - i.e. they lumped them into the "none of the above" category to appear inclusive. Here are my more "honest" results (i.e. I read the questions this time): 1. Secular Humanism (100%)2. Unitarian Universalism (99%) 3. Liberal Quakers (88%) 4. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (83%) 5. Theravada Buddhism (71%) 6. Nontheist (68%) 7. Neo-Pagan (68%) 8. Bahá'í Faith (55%) 9. New Age (53%) 10.

Most of us score quite low on Islam, as well.
