Been awhile since I’ve done a “What Kind of X Are You?” quiz so here’s one that’s right up my alley…

You scored as Scientific Atheist, These guys rule. I’m not one of them myself, although I play one online. They know the rules of debate, the Laws of Thermodynamics, and can explain evolution in fifty words or less. More concerned with how things ARE than how they should be, these are the people who will bring us into the future.

You scored as a Agnostic

Agnostics consider the possibility that they may be wrong about God’s existence, no matter which side of the fence they stand on. Always willing to objectively evaluate the most ridiculous proof, nevertheless, these guys are skeptics of the Nth degree.

... I don’t understand it… but eh I don’t understand a lot of things.

No big surprise. I was brought up as a Unitarian Universalist and one of the authors of the Humanist Manifesto was our pastor. We all know that UU isn’t an organized religion.

You scored as Spiritual Atheist, Ah! Some of the coolest people in the world are Spiritual Atheists. Most of them weren’t brought up in an organized religion and have very little baggage. They concentrate on making the world a better place and know that death is just another part of life. What comes after, comes after.

This is pretty accurate of my view:

You scored as Apathetic Atheist, Meh… whatever. Apathetic Atheists tend towards disbelief because believing takes more work. These are the people who won’t argue religion, even if a total nutjob confronts them because arguing just seems like a waste of time they could spend doing something else.

I just see how I scored as an atheist. I know for a fact that J.R. “Bob” Dobbs was the best drill bit sales man ever. I also know that Jehovah 1 is really an evil alien, so we need to become his tool.
And don’t forget if he hasn’t seen your $ you’re still pink to “Bob”

Thought I’d be more scientific than spiritual.  Obviously apathetic since I don’t bother arguing about religion.  I’m found in the past that I fit the agnostic description well, with the exception of “We can’t know if god exists”, which I don’t accept. 

The description of Spiritual Atheist does fit me, and the Scientific description of “More concerned with how things ARE than how they should be” also fits me very well, since I’m more concerned with the reality of something, rather than with the spin.

the only faith I have found with a guaranty is the church of the SubGenius. Triple your money back if you goto ‘normal’ hell. If “Bob” is wrong he will greet you with a check for $90 and an offer to buy his book “how to enjoy hell for 5 cents an etenity” for the low price of $89.95.

Damn! I even got a tie-breaker question and it still couldn’t decide – looks like I can’t either.
I wonder why it picked me to be a Spiritual Atheist rather than a Scientific or Apathetic Atheist.
That was purely rhetorical - I don’t really care.  smile

Just on the off-chance you want an opinion I see this as meaning: you’re sceptical about there being a god, equally, you’re sceptical about there NOT being a god … and that’s just about the god question.
With this type scepticism happening in your head, from opposing sides there’s a real danger you will internally haemorrhage at any moment.
Join the dark side, Luke.

On the other hand although this is an interesting parlour game I doubt it’d hold much weight in a psychological evaluation but, being apathetic, I don’t really care if that’s true or not.

Okay… So I guess that makes some sense to me!  That is probably right too.  I’m not sure whether god is real or not… That topic makes me confusing because you have people that are.  “This is what happened....” and those who are.  “No, that happened because ...” It’s too confusing.

You scored as Angry Atheist, Whoah! Down boy! It’s time to let go of the belligerence and let someone else talk for a while. Even if the religious don’t make must sense, you should probably observe the unspoken rules for human interaction and not yell directly into their faces.

Beware the beast man, for he is the Devil’s pawn. Alone among God’s primates, he kills for sport or lust or greed. Yea, he will murder his brother to possess his brother’s land. Let him not breed in great numbers, for he will make a desert of his home, and yours. Shun him, for he is the harbinger of death.
