Greg scored in the Secular Humanist zone, while I, apparently, am a Socialist. I didn't realize that and am grateful to the good folks at Worldview Weekend for pointing this awful truth out to me. Maybe there is something I can take for it. I wonder if I eat the Bible if that will help?
Very interesting test, btw. Here is a sample question (one that I failed miserably, btw):
When you study the Bible as a whole, it becomes clear that God is very supportive of an economic system that is based on private property, the work ethic, and personal responsibility.
Most of the others were just as bad. One other comment (kind of a spoiler for the quiz) is that their "correct answers" were always either strongly disagree or agree. No room for nuance in this worldview. No room to suggest that perhaps there are merits to a capitalist economic system, but many problems as well. No room to talk about the merits of government, not as a source of wealth, but as a powerful force that can assist business and also protect consumers. No room for gray at all. Black and White. Off and On. Right and Wrong. Binary thinking.
Pass.

You'll be happy - I am a socialist too. I was a bit disappointed that they did not have a category called "heathen," but what can you do. -- Getting Colder in Laramie
P.S. That test was too damn long.
