Quiz: Which religion should you belong to?

I haven't really posted this weekend due to having a Halloween party that needed lots of last minute preparations and then I needed a day to recover, so I'm just going to make a quick and easy post and put off some of the longer ones I had planned for a bit.

I don't know how much weight I would put into their validity, but I took two online quizzes about religion and the results are in!

The first quiz I took was the Christian Denomination Selector. The list of options it tested for as well as my percentages for each are listed below:


Unitarian Universalism (100%)  
Episcopal/Anglican Church (94%)  
Liberal Quakerism (87%)  
Evangelical Lutheran Church (80%)  
Unity Church (80%)  
Eastern Orthodox Church (75%)  
Methodist/Wesleyan Church (73%)  
Seventh-Day Adventist (73%)  
Roman Catholic Church (67%)  
Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod (62%)  
Mormonism (60%)  
Presbyterian Church USA (56%)  
Assemblies of God (55%)  
Church of Christ (55%)  
Mennonite Brethren (55%)  
Orthodox Quakerism (55%)  
Southern Baptist (55%)  
Free Will Baptist (45%)  
Presbyterian Church in America/Orthodox Presbyterian Church (38%)  
Reformed Baptist (38%)  
Reformed Churches (38%)  
International Church of Christ (36%)  
United Pentecostal Church (36%)  
Jehovah's Witness (0%)

Honestly, I'm not that surprised that Unitarian Universalism came up first with 100%. In fact, it asked for a prediction that wouldn't affect your score and I predicted that I would match most closely with UU. However, I am a bit surprised at how many Protestant denominations came up before both Catholic and Orthodox.

The next quiz I took was Spirit Belief System Selector. This one took into account most of the world's major religions whereas the first one only looked at Christian denominations (although arguments could certainly be made that UU is NOT a "Christian denomination" but rather a pluralist church with Christian roots). My results are below:

 1. Liberal Quakers - Religious Society of Friends (100%)
2. Unitarian Universalism (100%)
3. Neo-Pagan (84%)
4. New Age (77%)
5. Orthodox Quaker - Religious Society of Friends (75%)
6. Mainline - Liberal Christian Protestants (75%)
7. Taoism (72%)
8. Mahayana Buddhism (67%)
9. Reform Judaism (65%)
10. Secular Humanism (62%)
11. New Thought (60%)
12. Jainism (59%)
13. Sikhism (57%)
14. Christian Science Church of Christ, Scientist (51%)
15. Hinduism (50%)
16. Theravada Buddhism (48%)
17. Scientology (47%)
18. Islam (46%)
19. Bahai (45%)
20. Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) (43%)
21. Orthodox Judaism (40%)
22. Seventh Day Adventist (33%)
23. Non-theist (32%)
24. Jehovahs Witness (27%)
25. Mainline - Conservative Christian Protestant (27%)
26. Eastern Orthodox (26%)
27. Roman Catholic (26%)

Once again, I'm not surprised that UU came up 100%. However, I wasn't expecting Liberal Quakers Religious Society of Friends to come in at number one. In fact, I'm not even entirely sure what that is. I'm also extremely surprised that Catholicism came in dead last. I honestly disagree.

If any of you decide to take either quiz or find a better quiz, let me know your results in the comments!
