I really don't think that that quiz separates the denominations very well. Most of the questions relate to the definition of God, so that simply puts all conventional churches together to be separated by just a very few additional questions on a limited number of subjects.

I can't, however, find a better one, although I know they are out there. Anyone have one in mind?

I agree, I am not pentecostal and yet Assemblies of God is my #2.

There are some others that I found:

Thanks for that page. That quiz is a lot better than most of the others I've seen online, although it produced Puritan (77%) for me also, and there's little reason for judging me to be one, especially since I answered "episcopal system" to the several questions that dealt with that. On the other hand, the quiz has no classification for Anglican. I'll get back to the other quizzes that are linked. Glad to see that, too.

Turns out I'm a 100% Lutheran on that quiz, and again, I don't see how.

Can I be "Post-denominational"?

Isn't that just the same as non-denominational except without associating with churches that label themselves as such?

There may not be, but I thought the questions were pretty good on that "Which Christian denomination do you belong to?" quiz--even though neither of us thought much of the results it gave us.

In my case, I know that none of these quizzes judges orthodox Anglicans correctly, so I can see where the Puritan assessment came from.

Just out of curiosity, orthodox anglicanism is evangelical, right? not anglo-catholicism?

also, is orthodox anglicanism under the British crown? or is this what you are referring to? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthodox_Anglican_Communion

Yes, and on these quizzes, if you answer that way, they seem to want to put you in the Presbyterian/Reformed camp or, as with this quiz, "Puritan."

also, is orthodox Anglicanism under the British crown?

No, but there's a problem with that question. By "orthodox" is meant authentic or, in our case, the original. As you probably know, the church had been Protestant, and all its docruments/forumularies are Protestant, but Anglo-Catholicism has been making gains for the past 150 or so years such that many people now take it for granted that their perspective is normative. But these terms refer to perspectives, doctrinal orientations, etc. Of all the Anglican churches in the world, it's only the Church of England that is under the Queen (in theory), and it doesn't matter whether a member is Evangelical/orthodox or Anglo-Catholic.

is this what you are referring to? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthodox_Anglican_Communion

No. As I was saying, "orthodox" used as I did refers to a theological orientation.

The "Orthodox Anglican Communion" is just the name of an independent denomination...and it's not orthodox anyway. It has all but collapsed recently and never was anything even close to what that Wikipedia article claims.

Ah okay, well props to orthodox anglicans for standing up to anglo-catholicism then

another question out of curiosity: do the gains of anglo-catholicism ever make you want to switch denominations? Until now, I didn't really associate anglicanism with evangelicalism, more like catholicism-lite
