Belief-O-Matic

According to BeliefNet's 'Belief-O-Matic' quiz, these are the religions that--in decending order--most closely match my personal beliefs:

1. Sikhism (100%)
2. Orthodox Judaism (98%)
3. Islam (87%)
4. Reform Judaism (86%)
5. Bahá'í Faith (85%)
6. Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) (65%)
7. Eastern Orthodox (62%)
8. Roman Catholic (62%)
9. Mainline to Conservative Christian/Protestant (62%)
10. Hinduism (61%)
11. Liberal Quakers (61%)
12. Orthodox Quaker (61%)
13. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (60%)
14. Neo-Pagan (57%)
15. Jainism (55%)
16. Unitarian Universalism (52%)
17. Seventh Day Adventist (50%)
18. Mahayana Buddhism (47%)
19. Jehovah's Witness (41%)
20. New Age (37%)
21. Scientology (37%)
22. New Thought (33%)
23. Theravada Buddhism (33%)
24. Christian Science (Church of Christ, Scientist) (28%)
25. Secular Humanism (23%)
26. Taoism (21%)
27. Nontheist (18%)

Stranger than having Sikhism so high on the list is the total absence of Conservative Judaism, especially given that both Reform and Orthodox Judaism are represented.

I guess you're a Sikh now!
