    heres what i got:

    1. Secular Humanism (100%)
    2. Unitarian Universalism (100%)
    3. Liberal Quakers (96%)
    4. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (88%)
    5. New Age (85%)

    24. Sikhism (17%)
    25. Seventh Day Adventist (15%)
    26. Eastern Orthodox (4%)
    27. Roman Catholic (4%)

    im definately largely secular humanist and unitarian universalist. but not 100 of either. but they would be good classing for me, particularly the idea of unitarian universalist.

    liberal quaker a little too. but after that it goes a bit odd.

    these results apply for my way of life well. but they dont actually define my belief in any way. but yeh wahtever. thats how it would be for most of us?

    Ummm... Secular Humanism isn't a religion, hence the word "secular." There is no church, no clergy, and no doctrine. That's why the evangelicals fear it so much. Imagine all those secular humanists out there, just thinking for themselves! [​IMG] The horror!

    Humanism is a philosophical movement of sorts, which concerns itself with advancing the welfare of all people. This goes against the grain of many of the "authorities" of organized religion, who tend to believe that people should only concern themselves with the welfare of other people who practice the same (read: their) religion.

    yeh id call it a religion. id call any common goal that influences lyfestyle of any group of people a religion. secular humanism isnt for the worship of god its for the worship (well, furthering) of ourselves, humans. well i dont know this im just workin off wat ive read so far
