Four years ago, I completed the Belief-O-Matic quiz at beliefnet and I've been meaning to post the results.

When someone mentioned the Christian's right to bear arms in a comment on another blog, I was reminded of my pacifism. It's not a strong trait, so I need to be reminded of it from time to time.

The results do not match what I would expect. I can say that Billy Wyler's Friendly Persuasion is a favorite movie of mine and, 'round here in western NJ/eastern PA, I'm sure I could find a meeting house!

Aren't you concerned that you scored so high as a Seventh Day Adventist? What do you think this means?

Sure I am.

Worse yet, I can't figure which response trigger such a result.

I tend to see "Saturday" as the Sabbath ... if that counts for anything.
