The RR's are taking a Fundie quiz on OKCupid

[Jebediah]

My result was "anti-fundie". 18 points

You are an Anti-Fundie! This probably means that you're a logical, analytical person, and probably a big fan of Occam's Razor. You're very likely an athiest, or at least an agnostic leaning that way. It's also likely that you were raised with a Christian upbringing, and eventually saw how nonsensical the whole thing was.

On the downside, though, you may come off as a bit dispassionate or cold. Logic is a fine and upstanding virtue, but sometimes it's nice to humor the less intelligent. Makes it a lot easier to get a date, y'see.

Don't take it as an insult, though, my rational friend! You may occasionally look down your nose at a willfully ignorant Fundie, but at least you're not trying to beat 'em over the head with an ancient book of fairy tales.

I result was anti-fundie too. But with a 17 on their fundiness-scale I apparently scored higher than 11% of my peers, so I guess I'm more of a fundie than some people

[szaleniec]

The results are bimodal (with the anti-fundie peak considerably larger) if you look at the graph on the results page. It makes sense that people who have a strong opinion on fundamentalism, either in favour or against, would be more likely to take this kind of test.

Me: anti-fundie with 19 points.

"What happens if you don't score enough "Fundie" points to be classed as a Fundamentalist Christian?
[snip godawful "joke"]

A fundie trying to grasp the concept of humour is like a monkey trying to solve a differential equation. It's not going to happen and the attempt looks ridiculous.

[Damen]

Anti-fundie myself, with 17 fundieness points.

[Vypernight]

"You are Sane"

I haven't been so insulted since my mom said I look just like my biological father.

[rebelliousscot]

You're Sane! I bet that's a relief!

You're most likely an intelligent, people-focused person, and probably an agnostic or lapsed Christian. You tend to avoid the more outspoken Christians of the world, and probably consider them a bit nuts, but on the whole you respect their dedication and try to treat them as fellow human beings.

On the downside, Anti-Fundies might consider you a bit wishy-washy, and Fundies will happily lump you in with anyone who disagrees with them. Your respect for others' beliefs will serve you well, however, so don't worry too much. You're the sane one, after all.

Doesn't surprise me.

[Aqualung]

Sane; 21 fundy points. :/

[Zabimaru]

I was curious, so I had to take the test again just to see what the text would be if you chose all the fundiest answers. With the fundie-scale maxed out I got:

You're a Fundie. A Fundamentalist Christian, specifically of the American variety (though you folks are popping up in Europe, now, too).

You believe the Bible to be the literal, true Word of God. Every sentence, every punctuation mark, is the absolute truth -- even though you're probably reading the version compiled over one thousand years after Jesus' death, by a famously homosexual English king.

You're very likely bigoted, narrow-minded, and judgemental. You fear and hate those that are different from you, and you attack them with a righteous anger fueled by your psychotic, Bronze Age war god.

You're not entirely without good points, mind. Your absolute dedication to your beliefs is remarkable, and... Well, perhaps that's it.

But take heart, my Fundie friend, for now is your time to shine! Fundamentalist Christians just like you have been gaining power in this country, helped in no small part by your president, George W. Bush. If the trend continues, within a couple of decades all the athiests, gays, and scientists will have moved to Canada, leaving you to run the country as you see fit. I'm sure it'll be the envy of the the Third World.

I kind of doubt that the RR-crowd likes that text either

[antichrist]

I got a 17 too. Seems to be a common score around here.

I like the fact that the RR crowd won't take it. Poor babies are afraid of being rated lower than their peers.

[incognito]

I am sane, mainly because i do respect other peoples beliefs and dont want to tread on them, but at the same time, i expect the same thing on my beliefs.
