    1. Secular Humanism (100%)
    2. Unitarian Universalism (90%)
    3. Nontheist (81%)
    4. Liberal Quakers (71%)
    5. Theravada Buddhism (67%)

    23. Eastern Orthodox (11%)
    24. Islam (11%)
    25. Orthodox Judaism (11%)
    26. Roman Catholic (11%)
    27. Jehovah's Witness (4%)


    The Unitarian Universalism thing is horsecrap. Somebody just made up a 'belief' that basically encompasses anybody's belief.
    • Unitarian/Universalists welcome all deity beliefs as well as nontheistic beliefs
    • Very diverse beliefs, including belief in no incarnations, or that all are the embodiment of God
    • Most believe that God is good and made people inherently good but also with free will and an imperfect nature that leads some to immoral behavior. Some believe wrong is committed when people distance themselves from God. Some believe in “karma,” that what goes around comes around. Some believe wrongdoing is a matter of human nature, psychology, sociology, etc.
    • Some believe in salvation through faith in God and Jesus Christ. Some believe in reincarnation... For some, the concepts of salvation or enlightenment are irrelevant or disbelieved.
    Ridiculous.
    UU must be for agnostics who want to be part of a "religion".

    Weird, I took you for much more of a secular humanist than that...

    Ah well, as long as I'm not a Scientologist or a Mormon I'm happy tbh.
