Just for fun, how do you score on this test?
http://www.worldviewweekend.com/test/register.php
I'm fairly certain I would have done better, but some of the questions were so poorly worded that there was really no way to answer truthfully. Still, I was humbly proud of my score.
My classification was: Communist/Marxist/Socialist/Secular Humanist Worldview Thinker
My score was: -73 points of 170 possible, -42%
I have no idea where the -43% came from. 170 - 73 = -97
They must be using creationis math.
LOL! Percentages in this case are 73/170 = 43%. If you get 4/5 problems right you did NOT get 4% right. Sheesh, humanities majors
Anyway, BS questions are as follows:
If the research and theory of a group of scientists contradicts the Word of God, the error is with the scientists, not the Bible.
Why do I think there should be a floating "Our interpretation" in there?
One of the greatest virtues one can posses is the virtue of tolerance as defined by our postmodern world; namely, we accept everyone's lifestyles as equal.
Does the term "postmodern" always indicate that pure bullbyproduct is about to be appear?
Family, church and state are institutions ordained by God.
I want a new checkbox, one for all three. Family? Yeah. Church? Not necessarily. State? No.
There is a Bible verse that states that God helps those that help themselves.
Not specifically as such (at least I've never seen it, but I haven't read it as many times as I should have). However there are many times where God basically says "Quit your whining and go do something." Manna anyone?
The wording "separation of Church and State" is found in the U.S. Constitution.
Why are we questioning facts?
God used the process of biological evolution to create the world as we know it today.
Life. The world did not evolve, it's a lump of rock.
If you want to study the original source of law, then study the previous decisions of judges since our laws are always evolving based on the most recent decisions of our nation's judges.
Someone has never heard of "Statue" and "Precident." I'm just going to mock them, because statute has to be the original source (definition of original source).
And, drumroll: I'm a "Socialist Worldview Thinker" weighing in at 11%. Too bad I disagree with socialism.
Idiocies in their answer section (DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVE NOT TAKEN!)

Problem: Numerous passages make it clear that God's judgement is infallible, and that he can mete out judgement. However it is unclear that human judgement is infallible enough to justify an irreversable solution.
Q: One of the Ten Commandments is, thou shalt not kill, thus it stands to reason that God is opposed to war and nations going to war.
Problem: They misquoted a commandment. I don't even need to list my answer. THEY MISQUOTED A COMMANDMENT! KJV is a poor translation, period.
Q: If God does not exist, all things are permissible.
