Fun quiz to take for beliefs here...
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=389&topic_id=141136&mesg_id=141136

I'm Buddhist and Neo-Pagan tonight....:D

I remember this one from a couple of years ago, but its interesting to take and look at others' results.

9. Thats interesting!
I'm going to have to take the quiz again later also.

My next rating was 93% neo-pagan. So, we all seem to be around the same place. But, I just had to laugh at me being 18% roman catholic, the bottom of the list, which is the religion I grew up with...so, it seems I'm more anything else than that...very interesting hehe.

12. I ended up with
Scientology in the top ten. That is creepy. I can't imagine what beliefs of mine fit in with that belief system.

13. It's in mine too
Someone told me once that Scientology has some good point of truth in it but then goes awry. I don't know too much about the religion though.

15. For what it's worth, Hubbard stole a good deal from the MAGICAL order he was in.
Edited on Wed Feb-07-07 03:23 PM by kineta
L. Ron Hubbard was in the OTO. And in fact he stole more than just ideas from Jack Parsons who was heading the california OTO at the time. This is an interesting read that explains the relationship: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Parsons
