Okay, that's very anecdotic but I first thought (when I read it) that these Jesus Christ of Latter-day saints were "morons".
Gotta go to sleep right now.

Best thing is, you can also use this test to see how well you understand the tenets of other faiths. For example, I took the test again to see how well I could summarize Catholic, Mainline Protestant, LDS, Islam and a few others. I am quite happy to note that I nailed every one of them! :p

I was raised Roman Catholic and chose to become an Episopalian later in life. I guess it shows.

Not totally surprised, but a little foggy on some of the wording of questions. Also the top answer - in the "what they believe" page - seemed so wishy-washy and non-concrete. How can it be a "faith" if it has so many different incarnations? Certain things in there are much easier to understand because they have definite definitions - but "very diverse beliefs", "diverse opinions", and "differences of faith" and yadayadayada don't tell me anything about MY spirituality. Fun test, though.

I wasn't too surprised, 1 was my background, 3 is my present association, am aware of 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 15 and even 26 as influential on my outlook. Not really sure what Quakerism is like (can't imagine the difference between an Orthodox or Liberal one), but since I am not a pacifist, it would be kinda hard for me to be a Quaker or a Buddhist. Surprised to see Islam so high, but Mormons beat them out. Scientology should be right down there with Secular Humanism.

NAK, sure they do:
Eastern Orthodox! Can't get much more plain or old in terms of Christianity.

I participated on the beliefnet forums for awhile, but ultimately didn't find their descriptions or ideas to necessarily match the truth of some of the listed belief systems.
