I'm a " Meditative Atheist"

"You are completely at peace with your place in the cosmos because of your philosophical mindset. You may be a Buddhist, New Ager, or something similar, but you are always a pleasure to be around."

Whoops! I'm not actually an atheist! But I can't resist that sort of quiz. blush

soop Thu 18-Jul-13 14:34:28

I'm apparently a meditative atheist...okay with me.

whenim64 Thu 18-Jul-13 14:34:41

Me and you, eh, Jingle. Have you secretly been won over? Joking......!!!! grin

whenim64 Thu 18-Jul-13 14:35:48

Perhaps EVERYONE comes out as a meditative atheist?

j08 Thu 18-Jul-13 14:36:21

shock

grin

j08 Thu 18-Jul-13 14:36:59

Makes you wonder! hmm

Anne58 Thu 18-Jul-13 14:39:26

Not me, a scientific atheist! (although again I wouldn't actually consider myself to be an atheist, I have certain beliefs but they tend not to fall within any organised, recognised religion wink )

Sel Thu 18-Jul-13 14:40:05

Nope, I came out as an agnostic smile

Interesting quiz.

vegasmags Thu 18-Jul-13 14:42:44

I come out as an agnostic, which is how I would have described myself.

Ana Thu 18-Jul-13 14:58:54

Well, it's still calculating my results after 10 mins.....confused

betsysgran Thu 18-Jul-13 15:05:45

I'm an Apathetic Atheist! Whatever that means?!?!

Iam completely at peace with my place and I quite like the idea of being a philosopher smile

whenim64 Thu 18-Jul-13 15:16:36

C'mon, Bags! I'm betting on you coming out as Scientific Atheist, but having seen the skewed results, maybe you'll be off the scale?? grin

Ella46 Thu 18-Jul-13 15:20:30

when......"skewed"??!! Just when I was feeling philosophical grin

whenim64 Thu 18-Jul-13 15:32:41

Except you Ella .....and me! grin

I had to go and make a cup of tea when I discovered Jingle and I were both atheists! grin

petallus Thu 18-Jul-13 15:46:51

Came out as Meditative but had to have a tie breaker.

Anne58 Thu 18-Jul-13 15:49:30

I had to have a tie breaker too!

vegasmags Thu 18-Jul-13 15:53:59

I did one of the other quizzes where it guesses your name and no I am not called Nathan, Caleb, Tiffany or Bethany hmm

feetlebaum Thu 18-Jul-13 15:55:52

Me Scientific Atheist...

Butty Thu 18-Jul-13 16:43:02

ReverendAcid seems to think I'm a Scientific Atheist.

whenim64 Thu 18-Jul-13 17:27:00

I knew I should have put a tenner on it bags! grin

I wonder if there's a 'what kind of Christian are you?' questionnaire?
