 Resident Slayer |  Re: The Belief-O-Matic 1. Unitarian Universalism (100%) for me too. Never even thought of that. I usually put myself down as a Pagan (score: Neo-pagan (83%)), and despite having Secular Humanist thrown at me as an epithet for years, I'm only 92% there (prolly because I believe in Santa and the Easter Bunny)... I thought the questions didn't always leave an answer for "me" though...

 Creating |  Re: The Belief-O-Matic 1. Secular Humanism (100%) – no surprise there 4. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (78%) – makes sense –my dad was a Methodist missionary 6. Neo-Pagan (72%) – a bit disappointingly low, as I have danced naked under the harvest moon, and committed even better ritual acts of pageantry 9. New Age (63%) – unavoidable, I suppose  13. Scientology (51%) – yikes!  17. Bahá'í Faith (40%) – people are always telling me I act Bahá'í, though they can never explain why 18. Jainism (39%) – again disappointing, as I’ve a strict code against killing even the ickiest of bugs 27. Roman Catholic (23%) – just plain silly – I can’t even genuflect properly!  I love the Belief-O-Matic Pity it doesn't rate for transhumanist beliefs.---------------- Moderator: Computers and Technology; Medical Science; Science Projects and Homework; Philosophy of Science; Physics and Mathematics; Environmental Studies | |

| Married man Sponsor | Re: The Belief-O-Matic I wonder how the Belief-O-Matic actually works? The answers themselves can be extrapolated pretty easily, but with the extra matrix of "priority", it is a more daunting task. I suppose I would start experimenting with different "mind sets" to achieve somewhat predictable results and record every answer and ultimate percentages. With enough trials, one could make some generalizations (of which guided the whole process anyway). But what about the "priority" factor? How does it skew the answers? I don't even know how to approach this mathematically. ---------------- Hypography Science Forums Moderator --- "There are no passengers on Spaceship Earth.
