It's official...
According to this I'm a Presbyterian. I'm a little surprise to see how close to Orthodoxy I am.

I found this test overly general in some places and lacking sufficient choices in others. Not to mention, the obvious theological predisposition of the author.
Nevertheless, here are my results - not a lot of surprises here:
1: Baptist (Reformed/Particular/Calvinistic) (97%)
2: Presbyterian/Reformed (81%)
3: Baptist (non-Calvinistic)/Plymouth Brethren/Fundamentalist (75%)
4: Lutheran (74%)
5: Anglican/Episcopal/Church of England (65%)
6: Congregational/United Church of Christ (60%)
7: Church of Christ/Campbellite (54%)
8: Seventh-Day Adventist (41%)

Dude - I couldn't take this thing. I didn't find a single choice in any of the questions that made me think, "Yes. That's me. That's what I think." Only a few times was a choice even remotely close. Perhaps that says more about me than this quiz...

Well apparently I'm almost a Lutheran, and even further than Josh from being a baptist (something I wasn't sure was possible). The sacrament questions were confusing, and didn't necessarily offer the options I was looking for.

Riley,
How would you answer the questions?
Man... no love for the Baptists, not even the Calvinistic ones like meself. A trifle upsetting.
We should be much closer than some of these scores indicate.
well hello OneOfTheServens (no matter which one you happen to be...) -
not sure how to answer your question (i'm being terribly ambiguous, i know). i just thought that the options were a bit reductionistic. as if perspectives on these issues can be summed up in one of three sentences or an additional "not sure" choice. a bit like sceaming "BREAD NOT BOMBS!" as if the issue were that simple. a few times i found myself appreciating multiple perspectives, and at other times i didn't find myself in any of them. my biggest issue was with the way the questions were phrased. words like "should" or "what is the correct..." i'm not denying that we ought to have a sense of "should" or "correct" about SOME of these issues, but i am ill-equipped to offer the "shoulds" and "corrects" of theology on my own. i need the Body far too much.
plus, i'd rather not know what percentage of any given christian sect i am. i'd rather be naive enough to believe that i am 100% a Jesus-follower (admittedly, that is a simplistic statement... but one i'm willing to live with).
