I was surprised to find that I scored fairly moderately on most things, and lost interest after about a dozen or so. Part of the reason for my moderate score was because of the conviction I have in Atheism and Capitalism (this obviously isn’t the place to discuss these issues, but I suspect that most of the members here have views that are nearly identical to mine).
The tests seem to be designed for people who have some degree of Theism, and believe in large amounts of government intervention (compared to, say, the 1900s—both parties qualify compared to older standards). Because my views are less conventional, I’d end up answering a 5 on one question, and a 1 on the next, skewing the results.
For Instance:
How important is it to spend time meditating on your religion? 1
How much does your religion influence your behaviour? 5
Overall, the results aren’t particularly interesting—at least, not unless they program some meta-level analysis into the charts.
Did you take the tests that he linked to? http://www.yourmorals.org/
