Not true, I didn't. ;) But like I said, I wasn't sure how to answer the questions. My point with the Quaker/Atheism results was just that surely if you say you don't believe in any god, then your top results should all be the possible atheist ones, followed by theist ones. But whatever :D

@Aegis did you look at the attributes of Secular Humanism? It does say they tend to be atheist/agnostic ;)

As for the SBC, I would agree that they are the most fundamental and conservative church in the US, though Church of Christ would probably be close in the running.

Various easily defined beliefs/values of the SBC:
1.)No Drinking
2.)No Dancing
3.)Cannot be an Ordained Minister of you have been Divorced
4.)King James Version of the Bible is the only true Bible
5.)Wives must submit to their husbands(they leave out the "and husbands love their wives part" when referring to this passage.
Do the SBC and the Church of Christ share most values, or do they emphasize different things? I must say I'm surprised to hear that King James Bible is considered the only true bible, why that particular version and not the older writings?

This is the trick: do you recall all the questions in the latter part of the test where you answer what you think about homosexuality, gender roles, abortion, divorce etc? Now, above this part of the test is the text:

"THE FOLLOWING POSITIONS SHOULD BE PART OF THE RELIGION OR BELIEF CATEGORY:"

That is why I, and probably you and Aagis too, don't come out with 100% in atheism/agnosticims. If we had chosen "not applicable" to those questions, we would have come out at atheists/agostics, but what we do by answering them is to say they should be included in a belief system.

yes i think you are right. i went through and check none of the above or n/a on every question and look at what i got:

1. Atheism and Agnosticism (100%)
2. Secular Humanism (100%)
3. Neo-Paganism (50%)

Well, the questions are formulated in such a way that they do. They don't ask you if your morals correspond with the values presented - they ask if the values presented should be included in your belief. So, if your moral values are intrinsic, you don't need a beliefsystem to keep you in line ;)
