[Taverner]

1. Uh oh - Sarah's in one of those reflective moods again :)

[SarahB]

3. I'm so deep.

Tonight I look like this:

[Taverner]

4. SiddharthaSarah

I would take the test, but my brain's been fried already.

[SarahB]

15. What did Buddha say to the hot dog vender?

...Make me one with everything.

(An oldie, but a goodie.) :D

[ForrestGump]

7. Some questions had no good answers, but I got this:

You scored 46, on a scale of 25 to 100. Here's how to interpret your score:

40 - 49

Active Spiritual Seeker – Spiritual but turned off by organized religion



Might be right. Not very active, though...kinda ambivalent, and most of what I like is along the lines of Taoism.

[Paragon]

8. 42, Spiritual but turned off by organized religion

About right, considering the Cosmo multiple-choice nature of the quiz.

[Alenne]

9. 34 - Spiritual Dabbler

Open to spiritual matters but far from impressed

[AlFrankenFan]

10. Active Spiritual Seeker – Spiritual but turned off by organized religion

[Champ]

12. I couldn't get past the first question

I believe in the possibility of a superior being out there I just haven't had substantial proof. Same thing with ghosts, I believe in the possibility of one existing I just haven't seen one.

[Martin Eden]

13. Question 14 sucked

I didn't find any of the answers satisfactory:

Q14. Each day’s newspaper brings reports of crimes, natural disasters, and disease. My most basic reaction is:
1. My faith is tested because I cannot understand how a just God could tolerate the agony of the world
2. I feel sadness, but accept that both the good and the bad of life are somehow part of God’s plan
3. Such tragedies make me confused about the nature of the Higher Power
4. Tragedies and disasters in the world convince me there is no God

My answer would be that tragedies and disasters are natural occurences that neither prove nor disprove the existentence of God. There's nothing confusing about it, unless you expect cosmic intervention just because of your faith.

BTW, I scored a 44: Active Spiritual Seeker -- spiritual but turned off by organized religion.

A fairly accurate assessment of my agnostic open-mindedness.
And I am definitely turned off by organized religion.

[SheWhoMustBeObeyed]

29. Yes, 14 sucked big time

My answer would be very akin to yours.

The test rated me a Dabbler. Fair enough, I suppose.

[kwolf68]

14. Score of 60

Thats boring. I wanted something extreme.

[Fenris]

16. Active Spiritual Seeker - Spiritual but turned off by organized religion

40 - 49 That's me to a T!

[TXlib]

17. 33 - Spiritual dabbler

I would call myself a hardcore skeptic -- I think they test is either flawed or biased toawards sprituality.

[SarahB]

22. Hey...

Shouldn't you be stuffing mushrooms, cooking cocktail weenies, or finalizing the homebrew prep right about now? :D

[Endangered Specie]

23. I agree with that...

I somehow managed a 36, thats the higher end of dabbler, I am either at the border of dabbler/skeptic, or skeptic, period... considering what Im reading "Why People Believe Weird Things", written by a skeptic of course.

[SheWhoMustBeObeyed]

30. Same here

It rated me a dabbler but I consider myself a charitable agnostic - I don't believe but I'm willing to concede there may be things that aren't or can't be known.

[djeseru]

18. Old fashioned seeker.

A 63 for me. Hmmm...and I thought I was a straddler.

[supernova]

19. Old Fashioned Seeker

I took this test several years ago. Don't remember what my score was. I make my home in mainline protestanism, but I feel free to branch out and experience other paths now and then. It's a good way to see out others experience the Divine and give me new insights that I couldn't get just remaining within the confines of my faith.

[Darranar]

20. 29, Hardcore Skeptic...

pretty much what I expected.

[LWolf]

21. 60: Old-fashioned seeker:

60 - 69
Old-fashioned Seeker -- Happy with my religion but searching for the right expression of it

I don't know how accurate that is; most of my responses would have been "other" or "none of the above" if it had been a choice.

[FarLeftRage]

24. Here is me

You scored 80, on a scale of 25 to 100...

80 - 89:
Confident Believer – You have little doubt you’ve found the right path.

Somehow, I always knew this.

[silverlib]

25. 68 - Old fashioned seeker

my favorite religious quote and I don't know who said it:

Religion is for those who are afraid of Going to hell.
Spirituality is for those who have been to hell and do not want to go back.

[SnohoDem]

26. 34 - Dabbler

[chefgirl]

27. Not really surprising

70 - 79
Questioning Believer – You have doubts about the particulars but not the Big Stuff


-chef-

[Mr. McD]

28. 28 - Hardcore skeptic

I would have to agree with that.:)
