Plus some silliness below the fold…

Two quizzes courtesy of Costly Grace.

You scored as Evangelical Catholic. You are a Protestant convert, or have been affected by evangelical Protestantism in some way. You love Scripture and incorporate into your daily life. You have a clear vision of Catholic morals and doctrines, and you make great effort to adhere to them.

However, your interpretation of Scripture may not be in line with Catholic teaching, and you may not accept legitimate plurality in doctrinal expression. You might want to read the Fathers of the Church and Papal encyclicals to deepen your Catholicism.

What is your style of American Catholicism?
created with QuizFarm.com

Of course, I’m neither an American nor a Catholic – but interesting all the same.

You scored as High Church Nomad. You were raised as some kind of evangelical, but you’ve started to appreciate other forms of Christian piety. Specifically, you’re starting to think that Roman Catholics aren’t as crazy as you once thought they were. You probably won’t end up going home to Rome, but Canterbury has piqued your interest.

What Kind of Evangelical Are You
created with QuizFarm.com

And then with this, I wouldn’t class myself as an evangelical either, but I’m a big fan of NTW (theologically, if not wholly ecclesiologically)

Put the two together – the catholic one tells me I’m an evangelical, the evangelical one tells me I’m a Catholic…

Clean, spontaneous and dark

Very interesting quiz exploring your sense of humour (HT Gospel of the Living Dead) Seems accurate to me. (Click full post for details)

the Cutting Edge
(52% dark, 42% spontaneous, 26% vulgar)

your humor style:
CLEAN | SPONTANEOUS | DARK

Your humor’s mostly innocent and off-the-cuff, but somehow there’s something slightly menacing about you. Part of your humor is making people a little uncomfortable, even if the things you say aren’t themselves confrontational. You probably have a very dry delivery, or are seriously over-the-top. Your type is the most likely to appreciate a good insult and/or broken bone and/or very very fat person dancing.

The 3-Variable Funny Test!

Multiple Intelligence Inventory

Something to do when the mind is idling a little:

Linguistic 40
Mathematics 40
Visual/Spatial 36
Body/Kinesthetic 35
Naturalistic 32
Music 39
Interpersonal 37
Intrapersonal 47

(HT Bending the Rule and MREM).

I think the important thing is the distribution, not the absolute score (which may simply reflect how emphatic the person is in answering). It’s all self-description anyway – but top score on Intrapersonal seems about right.

Hmmm, Moltmann

You scored as Moltmannian Eschatology. Jürgen Moltmann is one of the key eschatological thinkers of the 20th Century. Eschatology is not only about heaven and hell, but God’s plan to make all things new. This should spur us on to political and social action in the present.

Disappointed that Left Behind didn’t get a big fat nothing, but not bad otherwise.

Good quiz, written by Sven who’s a good guy.

You are the Cross of St. Benedict: This cross is
inscribed with several prayers for holiness and
peace including, -May the holy cross be my
light! May the dragon never be my guide- and –
Begone Satan! Never tempt me with your
vanities! What you offer me is evil. Drink the
poison yourself!-

Your Brain’s Pattern

Your mind is an incubator for good ideas, it just takes a while for them to develop.
But when you think of something, watch out!
Your thoughts tend to be huge, and they come on quickly – like an explosion.
You tend to be quiet around others, unless you’re inspired by your next big idea.

But I wanted to be River

I’m about five episodes into ‘Firefly’ at the moment…..

You scored as The Operative. You are dedicated to your job and very good at what you do. You’ve done some very bad things, but they had to be done. You don’t expect to go to heaven, but that is a sacrifice you’ve made for a better future for all.

My message from God

Was feeling blue, so sought light relief in another quiz:


You are Joan of Arc! You don’t really want to hurt
anyone, but if they attack your friends or your
country and no-one else will stand up to fight
them, you head into the battle. Beware though,
conviction tends to get you killed.

Scarily to the point (just add ‘or your church’….).
