Was linked to an interesting beliefs quiz and was curious what the Tweak3rs results are. I'm predicting lots of atheists. Beliefnet: Belief-O-Matic, Religion Beliefs, What Religion Am I Quiz -- Beliefnet.com My results:
1. Secular Humanism (100%) 2. Unitarian Universalism (92%) 3. Nontheist (85%) 4. Theravada Buddhism (80%) 5. Liberal Quakers (72%) 6. Neo-Pagan (64%) 7. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (64%) 8. New Thought (57%) 9. Scientology (57%) 10. Reform Judaism (53%) 11. Taoism (51%) 12. New Age (50%) 13. Christian Science (Church of Christ, Scientist) (50%) 14. Mahayana Buddhism (45%) 15. Bahá'í Faith (32%) 16. Sikhism (30%) 17. Mainline to Conservative Christian/Protestant (27%) 18. Islam (25%) 19.

So "secular humanism" = atheism? I expected to see a little more Buddhism in there, but given how crappy some of the questions were I'm not surprised.

Nah, I suggest you click the links for further explanations. Atheists and agnostics are in the "nontheist cathegory" We get the secular humanism thing probably because we answered the moral questions at the end instead of putting "not applicable" Somewhat atheists don't beleive in humanity's improvement, as an example
Interesting how JW is dead last. Curious how much this will change if I change the answer to one question.
From what I've read about Mahayana Buddhism I'm pretty interested. It's not the worship of a god but just the reverence for someone who was spiritually enlightened. And I like the moral aspects. Interesting... :-k

Well, they do. Atheists don't believe in a higher power. It doesn't mean they don't believe in betterment of society. Answering non applicable to moral/social questions is more along the lines of nihilism.
It's pretty much what I was expecting. I hadnt heard of Liberal Quakers before either, pretty interesting. 1. Secular Humanism (100%) 2. Unitarian Universalism (97%) 3. Theravada Buddhism (91%) 4.
