Here's the quiz I was talking about tonight.
I just took the quiz now quickly. Apparently I interpreted some of the questions differently from before. Same top four as always -- the order varies -- but they're all usually clustered together in the 70s. My Charismatic/Pentecostal score dropped off to 50%! I'm clearly going to have to do something about that...
Full results:
Neo orthodox 79%
Evangelical Holiness/Wesleyan 79%
Emergent/Postmodern 75%
Charismatic/Pentecostal 50%
Roman Catholic 39%
Classical Liberal 39%
Reformed Evangelical 25%
Fundamentalist 18%
Modern Liberal 14%

You Scored as Emergent/Postmodern
ReplyDeleteYou are Emergent/Postmodern in your theology. You feel alienated from older forms of church, you don't think they connect to modern culture very well. No one knows the whole truth about God, and we have much to learn from each other, and so learning takes place in dialogue. Evangelism should take place in relationships rather than through crusades and altar-calls. People are interested in spirituality and want to ask questions, so the church should help them to do this.

Corey - it is interesting that our top, middle and bottom 3 are all the same, even though not in the same order.
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting this, Corey! Here are my results. It turns out I’ve grown in my emergenty-ness since the last time I took the quiz.

Hey, look! Me too!
ReplyDeleteCongrats, Molly, on being the least fundamentalist of us so far! (And welcome to the blog!)
ReplyDeleteAlso, I am amused that Mike tested as more Catholic than you... :-)

What's Your Eschatology?
You Scored as Amillenialist
Amillenialism believes that the 1000 year reign is not literal but figurative, and that Christ began to reign at his ascension. People take some prophetic scripture far too literally in your view.

Which Theologian Are You?
You Scored as Karl Barth
The daddy of 20th Century theology. You perceive liberal theology to be a disaster and so you insist that the revelation of Christ, not human experience, should be the starting point for all theology.

What's the Kingdom?
ReplyDeleteYou Scored as Kingdom as a Christianized Society
Christians shouldn't withdraw from the world, but by being present in it they can transform it. The kingdom is not only spiritual, but social, political, and cultural.
(I really wanted to be able to give more nuanced responses to this one...)

Which Theologian Are You?
You Scored as Jürgen Moltmann
The problem of evil is central to your thought, and only a crucified God can show that God is not indifferent to human suffering. Christian discipleship means identifying with suffering but also anticipating the new creation of all things that God will bring about.
I wonder if this result has anything to do with the fact that I am currently reading Moltmann. I also find it sad that I scored the same for Tillich (whom I enjoy) and Luther (whom I loath). Interesting...

Anselm (Really??? I don't think I agree with everything Wikipedia said he taught. Last time I took this test a few years ago I was
Moltmann)
Anselm is the outstanding theologian of the medieval period. He sees man's primary problem as having failed to render unto God what we owe him, so God becomes man in Christ and gives God what he is due. You should read 'Cur Deus Homo?'

Well aren't you just a "kingdom as Christianized society emergent" so-and-so. But I notice no heretic test score. You are a heretic, aren't you? Admit it! Admit it now and repent and perhaps you shall avoid book club excommunication!!! ;)
ReplyDeleteNot that I really understand completely what these terms mean or some of the questions I answered.
ReplyDeleteYou Scored as Monophysitism
You are a monophysite. You do not hold to the idea of a hypostatic union of the divine and human in the person of Christ and instead hold that Christ had only one nature, which is a fusion of the divine and human. Condemned at the Sixth Ecumenical Council in 681.

I felt the same way about many of the questions Mark - I was just guessing what some of the things meant. Full disclosure. The first time I took the test I was a Pelagian. I went to wikipedia, read what that was and re-took the test answering 2 questions differently and suddenly I was Chalcedon compliant. If I had been Inquired at by the Spanish, I definetly wouldve said - Oh yes, I am Catholic and the pope is great - then when I got out I would do my own thing till I got caught again.

So here is my first quiz...I thought it was interesting how high I was in Wesleyan Holiness since I go to a reformed church. But maybe that is why. It's my reaction to all the Reformed-ness around me!!

So here are the other quizes...I really have no idea about some of the theologians and I find it funny that I tied exactly on postmill and premill. Aren't they supposed to be opposites? It's probably reflective of where my mind is with that one.
