  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

How accurate? Gosh, I don't know, it said my number one was Pietism-Liberal--I don't know what that means, but I don't identify myself usually with either word, but some who know me would agree with both?
Where can it be improved?
Spell Eastern Orthodoxy right;)

I haven't added a Reformed option yet :D

But it put you about right, somewhere between Lutheranism and Fundamentalism.


Herev,
Pietists see doctrine as being unclear and truth unknowable, so therefore wish to overlook doctrinal differences and de-emphasize them, instead focusing on the pursute of piety. John Wesley was strongly influenced by pietism, so it would fit.

In order:

Lutheranism
Eastern Orthodoxy
Pietism--Fundamentalist
Pietism--Moderate
Roman--Catholisim
Pietism--Liberal

The only question that threw me a little was the one on "no new doctrine". As I recall the Lutheran canon is not closed...that it is possible (albeit very highly improbable) for something to be subsequently unearthed and that may color some doctrinal interpretation later. Scary place to go but...if the canon is not closed...it seems to be an option.

So--good test. I passed! :p

Peace
Rose

The test, in theory, isn't supposed to test what you doctrine/theology is, but how you process it.

Some of the questions might not yet be clear enough. When I wrote it, I thought I would be able to set some theological stances neutral to some of the questions, but I wasn't able to, which kinda affected my results.

I still need some evangelicals and some Catholics to take this test. If everyone still keeps getting Lutheran, I'll know I screwed up. :D

I may have loaded some of the questions, even though I tried to be nuetral in tone.

Lotar just wants everyone to convert to Lutheranism :p
We really need a whistling smilie... :sorry:

I know what question put you over the top into Lutheranism. So I probably need to make a seventh option for Reformed.

I have no idea how Monica ended up with EO...
