Belief-O-Matic (http://www.beliefnet.com/story/76/story_7665_1.html)
Your Spiritual Type (http://beliefnet.com/section/quiz/index.asp?sectionID=&surveyID=27)
These are very interesting and "serious" tests from Beliefnet.com. In short it matches your personal beliefs to the religions that generally agreed to be the overall closest match to those beliefs. For some the results may be surprising or they may not be either way it is interesting.
My Top 5 Results :
1. Liberal Quakers (100%)
2. Unitarian Universalism (99%)
3. Neo-Pagan (95%)
4. Reform Judaism (89%)
5. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (88%)
My Spiritual Type : 60-69 62 old-fashioned Seeker -- Happy with my religion but searching for the right expression of it
Anyone else?

Funny, I thought it would have pegged me as a Rosicrucian type. I dunno, these quizzes can only make "judgements" based on the specific questions offered for selection. If there were more choices given, I am sure the results would be different.

Well there are I think only 26 options and that would (my guess) fall under one of the other ones. It's far from perfect but better than any others I've seen out there .
But yeah there are a few questions that I either had to give a No Answer reply to or the closest one while lowering the importance of that question to me.
