Maybe??

Actually, in looking quickly, I don't see any to add.

You can get a lot of decent links from this site

This is my favorite: http://www.religioustolerance.org/

OH! There's a site out there that you take this big quiz based on what you believe and it tells you what religion you are "best suited" for! Then it has TONS of message boards for all the major religions where you can ask ANY question, and someone on there has the answer. Kinda like us here on the DIS but related to that specific religion.

Ugh...I gotta go look for the address....I'll return and add it in a minute.

Looks like CBRorbust's like is right on (unless you are an aethist). At least for me it was. 100%! I didn't think it'd work.

Thank You!

I don't know if I really believe that the Belief-o-meter works. It told me that I would best be suited to be Mormon. I don't know anything about the Mormon religion, so maybe I could be. I've been raised Catholic my whole life, and there are only a few things that I don't really completely agree with. But I think that has a lot to do with my age. I even went to Catholic School for 10 out of 12 years! So when I saw Mormon, I was like... Who knows, maybe I'm a closet mormon and I don't know it yet!

I'll have to do some reading.

Glad I could help.

The belief-o-meter was on the nose for me. How interesting.

Pretty much right on for me. Though I didn't see it come down to any one *specific* denomination for me, it just listed a group of denominations.

Which, interestingly, fits me.

Thank you everyone!!!

That was a really interesting test. It totally nailed me as a Mormon too, which was a relief, since I am one, and totally love my church and everything it teaches. Honestly, a lot of people I've talked with over the years deep down believe many of the 'mormon' teachings (like that God and Christ are separate beings with immortal, physical bodies, or that we lived with them before we were sent to earth, and that this life is all part of a large plan to help us become like God.) It further makes sense because our church's teachings were all given by revelation directly from Christ himself. That's what I love most about it - it's all so true! Ok, I am getting carried away. If any of you are interested, check out www.mormon.org.
