Here are my (somewhat shocking) results. I had found this a year or 2 ago, before i started questioning, & got 100% JW. At least that's a little different now. I do still believe in God, but as far as everything else, i'm thinking it all over. I've got a lot of reevaluating to do. Even while i was still mentally in dubdom, i never thought of myself as conservative. Kinda scary! My answers may be very different in 6 months...

I came out 100% for UU; but when I clicked on the link for what they (UU's) believe, that's not what I believe. The test is faulty. They must of based our beliefs off the last paragraph. It looks like UU's don't know what the hell they believe in! If you asked me!

More on Unitarian Universalists • Belief in Deity
Very diverse beliefs--Unitarian/Universalists welcome all deity beliefs as well as nontheistic beliefs. Some congregations are formed for those who share a common belief, e.g. Christianity.• Incarnations
Very diverse beliefs, including belief in no incarnations, or that all are the embodiment of God. Some believe Christ is God's Son, or not Son but "Wayshower."• Origin of Universe and Life
Diverse beliefs, but most believe in the Bible as symbolic and that natural processes account for origins.• After Death
Diverse beliefs, but most believe that heaven and hell are not places but are symbolic. Some believe heaven and hell are states of consciousness either in life or continuing after death; some believe in reincarnation; some believe that afterlife is nonexistent or not known or not important, as actions in life are all that matter.• Why Evil?
Most do not believe that humanity inherited original sin from Adam and Eve or that Satan actually exists. Most believe that God is good and made people inherently good but also with free will and an imperfect nature that leads some to immoral behavior. Diverse beliefs. Some believe wrong is committed when people distance themselves from God. Some believe in “karma,” that what goes around comes around. Some believe wrongdoing is a matter of human nature, psychology, sociology, etc.• Salvation
Some believe in salvation through faith in God and Jesus Christ, along with doing good works and doing no harm to others. Many believe all will be saved, as God is good and forgiving. Some believe in reincarnation and the necessity to eliminate personal greed or to learn all of life’s lessons before achieving enlightenment or salvation. For some, the concepts of salvation or enlightenment are irrelevant or disbelieved.• Undeserving Suffering
Diverse beliefs. Most Unitarians do not believe that Satan causes suffering. Some believe suffering is part of God’s plan, will, or design, even if we don’t immediately understand it. Some don’t believe in any spiritual reasons for suffering, and most take a humanistic approach to helping those in need.• Contemporary Issues
The Unitarian Universalist Association’s stance is to protect the personal right to choose abortion. Other contemporary views include working for equality for homosexuals, gender equality, a secular approach to divorce and remarriage, working to end poverty, promoting peace and nonviolence, and environmental protection. -

On second thought, I don't know what the hell I believe either. But if I were to be a part of a religion, I'd have to have some kind of hard and fast rules.

"It looks like UU's don't know what the hell they believe in!"
We recently ran some UU'ers out of our neighborhood by burning a giant Question Mark on their front lawn.

2. Jehovah's Witness (88%)Well, I just made myself sick when I read the results, which are: 1. Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) (100%) Thought I had shed all of the JWism, but, Mormons are probably worse.
