According to the What's Your Spiritual Type quiz, I'm a “Spiritual Straddler.”

You scored 57, 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

I thought it was an interesting set of questions on a range of religion/spirituality-related topics; overall I'd say the result is probably pretty accurate. I'd have actually pegged myself somewhere in the upper forties according to their scale, but whatever.

What's your Spiritual Score?

Saw this quote online today, thought it was strangely accurate:

I believe in God, but organized religion reminds me of a cult.

I might try to write more on this later when I get a chance and when it's not one o'clock in the AM.
