How funny .... I was raised Catholic and that got my lowest score. I consider myself without any religion though. I just have my beliefs which include respecting other's beliefs.

I too, was raised Catholic and also consider myself without any religion. I found the high score for Theravada Buddhism (as opposed to other forms of Buddhism) was interesting as I've recently become interested in that form of Buddhism.

This was interesting to a degree. I consider myself a Liberal Protestant, I went to a Liberal Quaker college, and have many friends who are either Reform Jews or Agnostic/Atheistic Jews. (An Agnostic/Atheistic Jew is one who does not necessarily believe that there is a God, but still adheres to and observers Jewish tradition and culture.)

I'm not surprised since I was raised and confirmed a Lutheran, but converted to Catholicism when I got married.
This was fun, thanks for sharing.

Oddly enough, alot of the scores (results) listed by eveyone so far are pretty close to each other in general.

How true! Nearest contender, Mahayana Buddhism(67%), is way behind and that unequivocally establishes my way of life.

I suppose that the fact that the leading entries were so close in percentage rating means that it couldn't find an absolute label for my beliefs.
At least I now know that I'm not a jehovah's witness.
