Abstract
Christianity Test
Are You Inclined to be a Christian?
Contents Updated: Friday, July 30, 1999
A simple but serious psychological test in the form of a quiz to test your religiosity, or your suitability as a Christian or for conversion to Christianity. The test is ready to go. Read the question in the box, then click on the most appropriate answer. Initially one is selected but just change it to the answer you want.
When you finish the test, the results appear in the questions boc. You are graded on five different qualities. Right click and drag in it to highlight the result, or click "Select All" and copy it into memory to paste wherever you wish.
Sample Result
CHRISTIAN INCLINATIONS RESULT
You are judged on conservatism, acceptance, compassion, confidence and intolerance.
The Churches are hugely conservative basing themselves on unchanging creeds and holy writings that are considered the word of God himself and so cannot be changed. Your percent conservatism is 16. The higher your conservatism, the better the church likes you.
The higher your score (32) on acceptance of Christian values, the more the Churches like you because you are already indoctrinated with their conventions.
Compassion (78) is not only a Christian quality though Christians like to think it is. Many Christians today have nominally adopted the views of civilised society rather than the ideas propagated in their barbaric holy books, so many people who are simply civilised and not particularly Christian might get a high score here.
Your intolerance score is 30. More than 20 percent is intolerant. Christianity historically is an intolerant belief, though the progress of civilisation has forced it to adopt a veneer of tolerance. Today only a minority of people except in some extreme communities such as members of fundamentalist Christian Churches are likely to get high intolerance scores.
Confidence (33) is not necessarily a Christian quality but it often is because Christians have the idea that God informs them. Ordinary folk, lacking the guidance of God, are cautious rather than confident in what they say and do.
You can download (10 KB download) this applet right here in zip format. Zipped together as ChristBent.zip are an HTML file like this one (it probably is this one!) and the java applet class file, CBQuestioner.class. Just put the two in the same folder and it should work on a PC.
Hey! Why not make a quiz sheet of the questions, ask your friends, parents, teachers or ministers to tick answers or you note them, then analyse their answers privately using the applet to find out whether they are good Christians? Good, eh!
