What's Your Theology?
I always think of theology being a bit like spiritual geekiness. It's what Macs are to computer users, rare vinyl (or a 60GB iPod) is to music lovers, 19" alloys are to car drivers... You know, utterly dull to normal people, but fanatically interesting if you've got that sort of personality.
So of course I love it...
While researching my preach (ahem, honest!) I came across a link to this quiz. You answer some of questions and then it tells you what your theology is. I needed to use Wikipedia to look up a few concepts and people - which shows the poor state of my theological knowledge! - but I guess I'm happy with the result (...well the bits of it I understand...)
The quiz is here.

The quiz is here.
My results were:
| You scored as Emergent/Postmodern. You 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. | ||
| Emergent-Postmodern |  | 89% |

You have way too much time on your hands!!!!!
Come on Andrew - I know you're sitting in Bristol smoking Havana cigars with your feet up on a desk looking at a strategic map of Bristol considering how all your minions are doing all the work for you... You're not fooling anyone.
DO THE SURVEY - I want to see if I can trust your spiritual advice or not (what if you're a charasmatic/pentecostal - can you still be my over-seer?)
OK Dave here's the results...
Emergent/Postmodern 57%
Evangelical Holiness/Wesleyan 54%
Neo orthodox 43%
Charismatic/Pentecostal 43%
Classical Liberal 39%
Reformed Evangelical 39%
Modern Liberal 36%
Fundamentalist 18%
Roman Catholic 18%
So what do you think?
Wow, we're almost exactly the same! Although your low percentages obviously mean you're a bit more cautious than me.
BTW - there's 63 questions - isn't there more important things you should be doing with your valuable time?
P.S. Have you seen our Fantasy Football super-league? I'm beating you!!! (It may only be by 4 points, but I will be crowing about it, or at least until next weekend when you'll probably overtake me again!)
what concerned me was the fact you are twice the fundamentalist that I am!!!!!
As for fantasy football - it ain't over until May!!!! and I haven't had time to look yet as I was answering the 63 questions. I suppose if it was set by a Lutheran there would be 99.
Check out the coat of arms I have assigned you on the Rants and Pants blog...
