I go every couple years to see what I am "today".
Now, that's a rather UU thing to say, isnt it?
However I was an UU long before the internet -
5-10 years back, Belief-o-Matic had me as 100% UU, but I've been slipping
"today", I'm
1. | Reform Judaism (100%) |
2. | Unitarian Universalism (98%) |
3. | Liberal Quakers (94%) |
4. | Mahayana Buddhism (81%) |
5. | Sikhism (80%) |
6. | Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (80%) |
This is the first time that sikhism has been this high -- and as I was thinking "what has changed in me? do i listen to too much Richard Thompson music or what?" when the question to me became "is it me changing? or does Belief-o-matic keep up with changes in the religion themselves? A Baptist today is a long way away from a Baptist 40 years ago - the same for a Methodist .... and the same for an UU ----
- so not only how do we keep up with who we are, how do we B_O_M keep up with who the religions are?

Hey, I've never come out as 100% Unitarian Universalist, even though I've been one all my life. Once I came out as "secular humanist," which is ironic considering that I'm neither secular nor humanist (at least, not humanist in the way they mean).
I've never gotten any Reform Judaism, though. Now I'm totally jealous of you.
Sharon and I had a discussion about how I got to be high percantage in the Reform Judaism as well. I think we can ask ourselves what do they, Liberal Quakers, and UUs have in common to see why I scored that way.
