Honour Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 [quote name='Honour' date='Jan 15 2005, 09:38 PM'] 39% Progressive Catholic I only scored points because I like stained glass and it wouldn't let me skip some of the questions! Iteresting would be to see if I keeping taking the tests where my score goes as the months move on. [/quote] Hmm...4 months later PM is wearing off on me ....52 percent. If I was going to be Catholic I would agree totally with the church and would probably end up more conservitive, I'm just not sure if the Catholic church has that authority. [quote]You are a liberal Catholic You love the church, but you'd like to see some changes in certain areas--birth control, divorce, the role of women--where official teaching seems disconnected from contemporary experience. Your favorite hymn is probably "On Eagle's Wings" and your favorite pope is John XXIII. You admire Dorthy Day and like the philosophy behind movies like "Dead Man Walking."[/quote] Who is Dorthy Day? Never saw "Dead Man Walking" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thy Geekdom Come Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 95 I have a few issues with this exam. First, it doesn't realize that "Traditionalists" aren't 100% Catholics. It treats those who follow Vatican II as if they are less Catholic. Additionally, it implies that preferring vernacular hymns makes a person less Catholic, along with praying personal prayers or quick prayers (an ancient Irish custom). There aren't percentiles for Catholicity...you're either Catholic or you're not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aloysius Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 real traditionalists are 100% Catholic.. I consider myself a traditionalist. you're thinking of schismatic traditionalists anyway, it gages how traditional your Catholocism is. if you hit neo-trad or trad, you're Catholic. otherwise your not. the other levels are just for how traditional you are.

Extra ecclesiam nulla salus Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 one of the questions was if you thought Vatican II was a bad idea. Dosen't that mean that you are a schismatic if you do not accept Vatican II. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Socrates Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 You can't take these sorts of tests too seriously. Some questions are about dogma, while others are more about style. And "Traditionalist" is a somewhat vague term. Not all traditionalists are "phishy." The authors, of course, also confuse religious traditionalism with mere nostalgia. It says as a "traditionalist," I like movies like "Bells of St. Marys," etc., while neo-trads like Mel Gibson (himself a rather extreme trad!). I'll take The Passion over that silly 40s carp anyday!

Aloysius Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 [quote name='Extra ecclesiam nulla salus' date='May 31 2005, 01:51 PM'] one of the questions was if you thought Vatican II was a bad idea. Dosen't that mean that you are a schismatic if you do not accept Vatican II. [/quote] I don't know how that was gauged. actually, if you really look at it-- the NEO-TRAD mark is the one that says "you think Mel Gibson had some good ideas" ... I chose on that option that it was an essentially conservative council that liberals use for all sorts of bad things. now, if that's why I'm 95 instead of a hundred, then I'd take issue with it too. but it's just possible that's why I'm all the way up to 95 and not somewhere lower... I really don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aloysius Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 well, I guess I shouldn't have given beliefnet the benefit of the doubt. I answered everything exactly the same except said VII was a mistake, and got 98. ah well... don't take this quizes too seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Just Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 (edited) it didnt say Vatican II was a mistake, it said something like. "there were a lot of abuses after vatican II" which is true, but Vatican II wasnt to blame. Liberals took the documents in the wrong direction.
