Lotar's Crazy Test

[Lotar]

Well, I've been having fun creating a selector at selectsmart.com, and I thought I'd post it for comments.

How accurate do you find it?
Where can it be improved?

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

 

[Lotar]

Whoops!!!

Thanks

1. Lutheranism
2. Pietism - Fundamentalism
3. Pietism - Moderate
4. Eastern Orthodoxy
5. Pietism - Liberal
6. Roman Catholicism

 

[Lotar]

I haven't added a Reformed option yet

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.

 

[Eusebios]

Surprise! It says I'm Eastern Orthodox!!
Nice job, some other spelling errors I saw. ie.opportunity

 

[Lotar]

Thanks, fixed it.

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!

1. Eastern Orthodoxy
2. Lutheran

Hmmmm, while since I am Die-hard Lutheran I dont know how accurate it is.

 

[Lotar]

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.

 

[Oblio]

1. - EO
2. - Lutheran
3. - RC
4. - Pietism - Fundy
5. - - Liberal
6. - - Moderate

Anyone else notice that all the results so far have Lutheran in spot 1 or 2
Are the dice loaded ??

I truly didn't mean for that

Of course, three are Lutheran, and another is Reformed.

Lotar just wants everyone to convert to Lutheranism

 

[Lotar]

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

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

We really need a whistling smilie...

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...

 

[Lotar]

Just out of curiousity, how do the EO answer #6?

"Christ gave us the opportunity to be saved, and it is up to us to accept this gift."

I put you down everyone as agree, except for Lutheranism.

 

[Lotar]

I added in a Reformed option, so I think that should mix things up a bit more.

 

[Bulldog]

1. Reformed
2. Lutheranism
3. Pietism - Fundamentalism
4. Pietism - Moderate
5. Eastern Orthodoxy
6. Pietism - Liberal
7. Roman Catholicism

That's a little better!
