You are... an atheist, though you probably already knew this. Also, you probably have several people praying daily for your soul. Instead of simply being "nonreligious," atheists strongly believe in the lack of existence of a higher being, or God.

atheism 100%
Satanism 100%
agnosticism 75%
Judaism 33%
Buddhism 33%
Paganism 33%
Islam 0%

Bullshit.

I don't know why you would say it is bullshit, MC. You are an atheist, and it came up 100% in that regard. It would fall in order, since Satanism is rebellion against God, not necessarily worship of Satan that many of the answers would equate for that one as well. As for the others, the fact that your principles coincide in some regards to those of some religions is almost mathematically certain.

Lisanocerous - yeah, most of these quizzes have serious flaws. Remember they aren't well researched polls, they are simply put together by people who feel like wasting the time to do so.

While I probably wouldn't count these findings as scientific, I did find that my top outcome (agnostic) was right on the money. Satanism came in second and I will admit that I am ignorant about their theories and beliefs but it sounds dark and

It was supposed to be tongue-in-cheek, as when you said "suprising result".

MC - Sorry, it's been so long since your tongue has been in my cheek that I didn't recognize it.

TKW - The Satanists can be a little dark, but not as bad as they are made out to be.

You generally find the Devil-worshipping, animal-sacrificing types amongst teenagers that grow out of it. The actual Satanists of the adult and more permanent variety are actually simply opposed to God. To simplify their stance considerably, they believe in God, and don't approve of what he is up to. (More frequently people take the Satanist route in opposition to the church itself, not necessarily God, but being "opposers" to God is the primary position they take.

They are a strange bunch, and I do have some more details into their practices and etc..., as do at least a couple of my readers that I am aware of, but I am not going to go into it here. Just pointing out that they aren't necessarily as dark and sinister as they would appear to be by their name and reputation. Not exactly rosy individuals, but not people you would have to fear sitting on the bus next to.
