Belief-o-matic

I do the Belief-o-matic questionnaire occasionally as a sort of personal inventory. My latest results (interestingly, I am now only 87% Pagan):

1. Unitarian Universalism (100%)
2. Secular Humanism (99%)
3. Neo-Pagan (87%)
4. Liberal Quakers (86%)
5. New Age (79%)
6. Theravada Buddhism (78%)
7. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (76%)
8. Nontheist (70%)
9. Reform Judaism (65%)
10. Mahayana Buddhism (62%)
11. Taoism (62%)
12. New Thought (56%)

Secular Humanism was in third place, now it's in second place.

I did it and there were quite a lot of changes, but I think they keep changing the questions.

I think the questions are still the same - if you cross-check against my 2008 blog-post about it, you'll probably find they are the same (I copied all the questions into my previous blog-post). I reckon you might have changed your beliefs! Did you get Orthodoxy as your top result? In any case, the quiz is very biased towards Western Christianity. I reckon you'd have a job to find a question that reflects Christus Victor theology or theosis, for instance.

It's a simplified version of one that appeared on another site, I think.
