Wednesday,

does anyone know what the first one is? I checked its site, but can't figure it out.

1. Sikhism (100%)

It's a sect in India. Many of the beliefs sound a bit like Buddhism or Hinduism. And India has been known for conflicts due to religious differences, sometimes more "in your face" than in the US. Perhaps a web search would turn up something more informative for you. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

: Which religion are you?

Didn't you know "Religion is a Snare and a Racket?"

I've taken a test like that before and was told I'm part humanist and part buddhist.

Wednesday,

Sikhs were a reform movement that began in the Punjab of northern India. Tired of the castes system of the Hindus and the rituals and abuses of the Muslims, the original "teacher" taught in rhyme. He also taught his followers how to defend themselves, kind of a social movement turned militaristic to protect themselves from the majority. When the leader died, the hagiagraphics became so intense that a new leader was "created" and it kind of grew into a religion, with each leader having to dispense wisdom through poetry and setting an example of clean thrifty and honest life style. Many social additions have evolved since it started including all men must keep their beards, cover their hair with the turbins, etc. Alcohol was forbidden, still is, but many are "social drinkers".

They are well known for their fierce fighting and are the backbone of the Indian military.

Re the test... I scored 100% Baha'i. Wonder why???? :-)

Interesting - the church I attend is Mainline Conservative Protestant, with a bit of "tolerant of other beliefs" thrown in.
I'm a bit disturbed that JW's are at #12!

Interesting test. It appears as if it attaches the results to how emphatic your answers are. The first go round I tested as Ba'hai. I took it again, gave the same answers, but corrected how important I felt some of the answers were. This time it came out (accurately I think):

1.	Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (100%)

2. Liberal Quakers (86%)3. Mahayana Buddhism (84%) 4. Theravada Buddhism (84%) 5. Unitarian Universalism (84%)

Which religion are you?
