What’s Your Spiritual Type?

This is a more serious “quiz” than the other ones that I post. Some of you have may have taken this already, or at least seen it on Belief.net.

What’s Your Spiritual Type?

“What’s your religion?” It used to be such a simple question to answer. But now you might be “spiritual but not religious”–or raised in one faith but practicing another. Maybe you’re a Methodist but think of yourself more as an evangelical, or a seeker who is anti-religion–or born again. The old categories don’t seem to work because the religious landscape has changed so much.

The quiz is meant to help you learn about your self, see how you compare with others, and have a little fun. Please allow about 10 minutes for completion. Afterward, you might want to visit our message boards to meet others with similar scores.

It’s 25 questions. Take a few moments to take the quiz, and let us know how you score.

I scored 87, on a scale of 25 to 100.

Here’s how to interpret your score:

  • 25 - 29
    Hardcore Skeptic — but interested or you wouldn’t be here!
  • 30 - 39
    Spiritual Dabbler — Open to spiritual matters but far from impressed
  • 40 - 49
    Active Spiritual Seeker — Spiritual but turned off by organized religion
  • 50 - 59
    Spiritual Straddler — One foot in traditional religion, one foot in free-form spirituality
  • 60 - 69
    Old-fashioned Seeker — Happy with my religion but searching for the right expression of it
  • 70 - 79
    Questioning Believer — You have doubts about the particulars but not the Big Stuff
  • 80 - 89
    Confident Believer — You have little doubt you’ve found the right path
  • 90 - 100
    Candidate for Clergy
