Religion Poll:

[via Kotsko's Weblog where their theological pretensions do not extend to getting the names of non-Christian religions right]

HERE ARE YOUR RESULTS:
#1: Neo-Pagan (100)
#2: Unitarian Universalist (97)
#3: Liberal Quaker (88)
#4: Mainline to Liberal Protestant (88)
#5: Reform Judaism (83)
#6: Sikhism (83)
#7: New Age (79)
#8: Atheist/Agnostic (79)

#11: Baháí (69)
#12: Christian Science (65)
#13: Scientology (65)
#14: Taoism (65)
#15: Mahayana Buddhist (61)
#16: Theravada Buddhist (56)
#17: Latter Day Saints (55)
#18: Orthodox Judaism (55)
#19: Mainline to Conservative Protestant (50)
#20: Eastern Orthodox (41)

#22: Islam (41)
#23: Orthodox Quaker (41)
#24: Roman Catholic (41)
#25: Seventh Day Adventist (27)
#26: Jainism (13)

First religion quiz I ever took that gave me a Christian result above a Jewish one. For the record, I'm deeply disturbed by the appearance of Church of Christ, Science and Scientology so high on the list, and consider it clear evidence of a flawed test (or flawed test-taker).

You're obviously a little concerned about this 'Reformed Jew' thing.

The fact is, though, 'Reformed Jew' is really quite common, even amongst those who identify themselves as such.

Congratulations on the Neo-Pag. thing, though. If I remember correctly, that was my #2. My mother was proud.
