How do you feel about people controlling who your friends are? It's none of their business Among Jehovah's Witnesses there is very little that is 'none of their business'. This would be considered an attitude problem that you would need to work out of yourself as you 'put on the new personality'. Before you could be accepted among Jehovah's Witnesses, you would need to be willing to let them control who you associate with, what movies you see, what books you read, and even what sorts of intimacy you enjoy with your spouse. -

Oh that test!
I took it last year and scored a 0%
How do you view the Bible? The Bible is bunk This is not good. The Jehovah's Witnesses believe that the Bible is fully-inspired of God. They believe that "the" Bible is the collection of 66 books found in the King James version, though they also feel that their own unique translation is the best one available. If you can't accept Noah's Ark, people conversing with donkeys, and people being executed for lying about real estate transactions, then JW's probably aren't for you. What is the most important quality you look for in a church leader? Honesty, Integrity You might not fit in so well at a Kingdom Hall. Jehovah's Witnesses choose their leaders based first on quantities of service, then qualities listed in the Bible. Honest men of integrity that don't spend enough time in the door-to-door preaching work, or don't show up for all of the five weekly meetings will not become leaders among Jehovah's Witnesses. How often do you feel like attending church? Never, probably less This would be a problem. Jehovah's Witnesses have five mandatory meetings a week, usually combined into three days. If you regularly miss any of them, you would be viewed as "weak". You wouldn't have many friends, since none of them would want you to drag them down. How much of your time do you spend in recreational/family activities? 50% Yeah, you're going to want to cut this way back. Between meetings, preparing for meetings, studying Watchtower books with your family, preaching to your neighbors, cleaning the Kingdom Hall, reading magazines, reading the new books released each year, and reading the "Yearbook of Jehovah's Witnesses", you're not going to have time for these recreational things. Maybe your spouse could drive to the meetings, and you could take up macrame? What kind of vehicle do you drive? Motorcycle No good Jehovah's Witness drives a motorcycle. Some Jehovah's Witnesses do it anyway, but don't look for them to be leaders in the church. People on motorcycles are viewed as rebellious, and are probably not approved by God for risking their lives in this way. You'll need to get rid of your bike to fit in among Jehovah's Witnesses. How do you feel about people controlling who your friends are? It's none of their business Among Jehovah's Witnesses there is very little that is 'none of their business'. This would be considered an attitude problem that you would need to work out of yourself as you 'put on the new personality'. Before you could be accepted among Jehovah's Witnesses, you would need to be willing to let them control who you associate with, what movies you see, what books you read, and even what sorts of intimacy you enjoy with your spouse. How important are your family members to you? (Mother, brothers, cousins) Very important This could be a problem. If your family members are not Jehovah's Witnesses, you will be discouraged from spending much time with them. If you do spend time with them, you'll be expected to preach to them about your new faith as much as possible. If they are currently Jehovah's Witnesses, then you may be in for trouble if you ever decide the Kingdom Hall is not for you. If you join, then leave, they will not be allowed to speak to you ever again. How important is it to you to have the respect of your community? Very important, I work on my reputation Your reputation will likely take a hit if you become one of Jehovah's Witnesses. Charity giving and volunteer community work is discouraged, as it impinges on time spent in the door-to-door ministry and money that could be donated to the Watchtower. While they encourage good morals, you probably have those already. So you will appear to become more reclusive, less approachable, and your constant preaching about Jehovah's Kingdom will cause people to avoid you. The Kingdom Hall may not be the place for you. You view holidays as opportunities to: Reunite with old friends and family Jehovah's Witnesses view all holidays as inherently bad. There are different objections to different holidays, but in the end they are all considered inappropriate. Since Jehovah's Witnesses will discourage you from spending time with your relatives anyway, they will certainly not accept you spending holidays with them. If this is truly important to you, then the Kingdom Hall is not going to work. If all your friends stopped talking to you because you changed churches, you would think: "What is wrong with them? I can believe anything I want." Jehovah's Witnesses join for life. If they ever decide to quit being Jehovah's Witnesses, all their friends that formerly called them "brother" or "sister" will instead refuse to speak to them at all, not even a civil greeting. If you prefer to reserve the right to yourself to choose your own beliefs without fear of being shunned by your friends, you should not become one of Jehovah's Witnesses. -

You are 0% Jehovah's Witness!
You have what Jehovah's Witnesses call a "rebellious spirit" and a "bad attitude". Even if you became a Witness, you would be a bad one. You'd probably talk to disfellowshipped people instead of shunning them like you're supposed to. You wouldn't blindly agree to every new teaching of the Watchtower. The only friends you would have at the Kingdom Hall would be the teenagers that think you're cool, and the other "rebels". The Kingdom Hall is not in the cards for you.
And damn proud of it too.

For vehicle, I chose motorcycle as I don't own a vehicle period, that probably helped.

KZJW,
You only go once a week so you are viewed as weak and, therefor, as per Kingdom Ministry guidlines, are not to be addressed as one of the brothers. Sorry. They don't use the term "brother" for anyone who is associated but not baptized, either. It was in a KM talk a long time ago. They are supposed to address such ones as Mr. or Mrs. this or that.

Hey Eyes open:
Did you know that all personality disorder tests ask questions about traits in all humans?
The disorder is only a disorder when the extent of a particular feature is excessive.
So yes, you are right in saying the JW test will show up positives to some extent in every humans = which is how they hook you in the first place.
Obviously someone found your 7% and landed you!
