What Faith Are You? Find Out…

Apparently I am a Reform Jew. I guess that all of this studying Judaism has converted me, something about which I wasn’t particulary aware…until now. Or at least so says the Beliefnet.com Belief-O-Matic quiz. This online quiz is a compilation of 20 questions about such things as your concept of God, the afterlife, human nature, and so forth. Based upon the answers you give to these questions, this quiz purports to tell you what faith supposedly matches your beliefs. Determing one’s faith (to the percentage) via 20 questions on the computer strikes me as a bit simplistic (not to mention inaccurate…but who knows?); yet, it is a fun and interesting thing to do if you have a few minutes on your hands.

Here is the link to the site: http://www.beliefnet.com/Entertainment/Quizzes/BeliefOMatic.aspx

If anyone is feeling brave and decides to go for it, feel free to share your outcome. Remember, this is just for fun- no one is going to hold you to what faith you are assigned. I would be interested though to see the results that are generated.

This was my first time in taking the quiz. My results were as follows:

1.

Reform Judaism (100%)

Sikhism (99%)

Baha’i Faith (97%)
