Belief-O-Matic meme

You can take the quiz here. I gave the boilerplate atheist responses to all of the questions, except for agreeing that, yes, you should do "good" deeds (it doesn't ask you to define what "good" means, but I'd find it incomprehensible that anyone would answer people should do not do those deeds THEY consider to be good) and that yes, nonviolence is fundamental, but that's more a reflection of my understanding of the implicit social contract, not any divinely ordained morality.

Though I suppose there's nothing terribly surprising about the results, I do find it odd that those answers would peg me as 100% humanist and only 89% nontheist. The two categories are not mutually exclusive, but when a test such as this declares a misanthrope like myself to be a humanist, there's something wrong with the construction.

According to the test, I am a 100% Budhhist. I was unaware of this fact.

I got 100% Nontheist. Does that make me holier than thou?

In this case, absolutely. Cuter, too.
