I wonder what the motivation was to label this level as "Jerry Falwell"........

278. No way! My beliefs are definitely closer to Hillary's than they are to Bush's.

384. I'm very disapointed that I'm being compared to Falwell. I'm glad to be in the company of others here. (big up nb, melon!)

Re: Re: What Kind of Christian Are You?

I think I'd prefer the company of C.S. Lewis

as would i. i think that we should call ourselves lewis Christians intsead of "jerry falwel christians". i find i'm 500% (at least) more in agreement with lewis than i ever will be with falwel. last summer i read about ten of his books, and they helped me incredibly.

then again, "lutheran" probably describes me even better. lewis was a great man, luther was a genius.

Stop repressing your inner conservativeness......

 

[shrmn8rpoptart]

Denomination Selector i think this one might be a little more accurate...it lists the actual denominations, not just general people who might agree with you. and for those who aren't Christians, i haven't looked around, but i think there are tests for other religions too...

anyways here's my results:
#1 Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod
#2 Evangelical Lutheran Church
#3 Episcopal/Anglican Church
#4 Church of Christ
#5 Methodist/Wesleyan Church
#6 Presbyterian Church in America/Orthodox Presbyterian Church
#7 Reformed Churches
#8 Roman Catholic Church
#9 Eastern Orthodox Church
#10 International Church of Christ
#11 Presbyterian Church USA
#12 Free Will Baptist
#13 Reformed Baptist
#14 Assemblies of God
#15 Mennonite Brethren
#16 Southern Baptist
#17 United Pentecostal Church
#18 Orthodox Quakerism
#19 Seventh-Day Adventist
#20 Mormonism
#21 Jehovah's Witness
#22 Liberal Quakerism
#23 Unitarian Universalism
#24 Unity Church

that one is pretty much dead on for me

368, though I'm not sure I finished the quiz, as the pop-up ads took too long, and I hit refresh and my score came up 368.

Not to be pedantic, but Jesus wasn't born in a manger in Bethlehem, I don't think Mary gave birth while lying in a manger.

*Possible the writer of quiz isn't as familiar with C.S. Lewis, as they are with Jerry Falwell? *

 

[BVS]

It's been awhile since I've read Mere Christianity or Screwtape Letters, and I admit those are the only books of his I've read. But is C.S. Lewis really the literalist everyone is claiming he is?

381?????

So, just because I believe in the Bible I'm supposed to hate gays, worship Dubya, prefer the sappy, maudlin Touched By An Angel to the intelligent, beautifully-written Joan of Arcadia, love the religous nutcase propaganda disguised as entertainment known as the Left Behind series and admire Jerry Falwell?

OK, I'm going to go curl into the fetal position and cry now.

The "results" for that test are stereotypical. I don't buy it.

Don't worry, I am an atheist and I scored above 50.

 

[blueyedpoet]

i don't think C.S. Lewis would much care to be put in the same category with an American evangelist....please anglican/episco's and catholics don't kill me for this, but seeing as how the Church of England is very, very, very similar to the Roman Catholic church, and seeing as how Lewis was a member of the Chuch of England, I don't believe Lewis would be a fan of American evangelism

I read all of the descriptions....and I wondered the same thing about the description of the "Spong Christians".

I don't think Falwell should be in there. Period. Billy Graham would have been much more appropriate and fitting for that particular kind of Christian. This might bother some people as well, but if I were doing the test I'd put Graham in there, not Falwell. Graham has much more integrity than Falwell does. It seems like the person wanted to pick only the most controversial figures. I came up with a "like Bush" score and I'm not a Bush supporter. My score, 278, *is* only 23 points away from being "like Hillary". I think Hillary is a divisive person and I'm not supporting her for the Democratic nomination, but I don't mind being put in the same category, religion-wise, as her.

 

[RosieHS]

What kind of Christian are you?

I'm not...

 

[bcrt2000]

I scored 220, and I'm not even Christian

its just about where i'd expect to fall though

 

[BrownEyedBoy]

Jerry Fallwell Christian

I particularly liked this description: "You think homosexuals are sinful but try periodically to love them. " (Hopefully no one will be offended by that statement seeing as though everyone is entitled to an opinion and as long as they don't act upon it in a bad way it should be OK. )

 

[Bad Templar]

I'm a "bishop spong christian"

right....

I'm not even a Christian

Neither is Bishop Spong.

It's a stupid quiz anyway because it doesn't take into a diversity of scriptural interpretion into consideration.
