This is funny...funny...funny... you can take this test, and it will tell you what religion you mostly match up to. I am not sure mine works out for me. I think i would consider myself more of a mainline to liberal Christian, and a lot of people I have read about have been told they match up with the Quakers. Apparantly, I match up pretty closely with the Hindus. The kicker is that I most match up with the Catholics! Wow...imagine that. Some of you may say that the Catholic radio is getting to my head. I think that is kind of cool in a weird sort of way. Oh well, I am so anti-labels on religion that I dont really think it matters what I call myself. I just want to be a freakin' Christian! Nothing else...just a Christian. NO LABELS! Remember Ephesians 4:1-5? I posted on that earlier in a post called "How About Them Apples!" How about one faith??? How about living in unity as Christians?
Disclaimer: I don't think all of these religions are Christian based..so don't freak out that I think it doesn't matter at all what you belief. I do think that it is possible to be a Christian within some of these other religions...but we can talk about that later.

1. Eastern Orthodox (100%)

I saw a youth performance last year and he led an adult discussion at my church the next day on the challenges of engaging postmodern youth in christian worship.

I think I have heard of them before...
i took this test once and i was an orthodox quaker. whatever that means! :P
Most people I know who have taken that were Orthodox Quakers.
I was shocked by my top three:
unitarian universalism
theravada buddhism
mahayana buddhism
I had to look up unitarian uniiversalism, turns out they believe in pretty much everything. At nearly every point it says "varied beliefs" Pretty funny, take a click on it for a laugh, unless you are unitarian universalist, no offense...
Take a look.. http://bible.gospelcom.net/passage/?book_id=66&chapter=1&verse=27&version=31&context=verse
This is me... This is how I try to live my life.

Here is the verse that Chris was saying he tries to live by:
James 1:27
27Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.
I talk about this verse a lot. So what will you say when people ask you what religion are you? Probably the wrong term to use
