Belief-O-Matic

If you've been feeling a bit lost in the sea of religion, you may just be saved, brothers and sisters, by Belief-O-Matic, a questionnaire presented by the website Beliefnet. The quiz's tagline reads, "Even if YOU don't know what faith you are, Belief-O-Matic knows."

After answering all of the questions, you get a printable list of 27 faiths; the one at the top of the list is the faith that Belief-O-Matic thinks most closely matches your expressed value system

The site makes sure to say, however, that even a score of 100% does not mean that your views exactly match those of that faith. B-O-M also makes sure to state that they take no responsibility for the ultimate state of your soul... ;)

Of course, Julien's List's resident Agnostic had to give it a go...pretty much no surprise here:
