My Life as a Mom

With 6 happy kids, life can be really fun around here! This blog is dedicated to the joys and sometimes chaos of having a large family. Okay, so it's always chaos around here, but fortunately, it's almost always fun, too!

I just did the "Belief-O-Matic" quiz on Beliefnet. This was a really interesting test just to TAKE, let alone to see the results.

Here were my results:

1. Unitarian Universalism (100%)
2. Neo-Pagan (98%)
3. New Age (96%)
4. Mahayana Buddhism (92%)
5. Hinduism (91%)
6. Scientology (87%)
7. New Thought (85%)
8. Christian Science (Church of Christ, Scientist) (83%)
9. Liberal Quakers (76%)
10. Theravada Buddhism (73%)
11. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (69%)
12. Taoism (68%)
13. Sikhism (62%)
14. Secular Humanism (57%)
15. Jainism (55%)
16. Reform Judaism (48%)
17. Orthodox Quaker (42%)
18. Bahá'í Faith (41%)
19. Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) (38%)
20. Eastern Orthodox (36%)
21. Roman Catholic (36%)
22. Orthodox Judaism (33%)
23. Nontheist (33%)
24. Jehovah's Witness (30%)
25. Mainline to Conservative Christian/Protestant (28%)
26. Seventh Day Adventist (27%)
27. Islam (22%)

It's really interesting, because I've had a great deal of interest in all the religions that have appeared at the top of my list.

It is really important to me to teach religious tolerance to my children, and I feel the best way to do this is to actually study about and understand the religions of others.

Some groups that really help in that area:

Youth for Human Rights

Foundation for Religious Freedom
