The Catholic Test

I took this test a year or so ago and was a neo-traditionalist. Now I'm traditionalist at 86%.

Very interesting. :mellow:

Maybe it's because Pope St. Pius X has become my new buddy. I was born on his feast day. :D

86 traditionalist-

for the question about the Eucharist- it asks the bread and wine literally become the Body and blood of Christ or the Bread and wine become the Body and Blood of Christ while still remaining bread and wine- I put the 2nd one cause isnt it the Body and blood of Christ in the form of bread and wine i.e. it looks and tastes and smells like bread and wine but its Christ in that form right? or maybe im just way off

94 - at first I thought that was good, until I thought for a second... "according to this test I'm only 94% Catholic... What church does the other 6% belong to?" :blink: :D

Anyways, I didn't think the questions were very good or accurate of what I really believe.

88% -- I'm a Traditionalist!! There is one "traditional" Catholic church here but it's CMRI and they are sedevacantists. I don't really agree with that.

I got 98 but that is because I was trying to find out how high of an answer I could get. For what is true, it's more like I'm a liberal because I'm really more of a Lutheran raises Orthodox-wanna-be who lives at home and attends church with them at Calvary Chapel and it totally got my fav hymn wrong, but I can't find my hymnal.

Darn. Actually I only scored a 94%, but I don't get what that means since the questions were largely just asking for opinion. It's kind of nonsensical. I'm 100% Catholic darn it. :)

This is what they said of me:

You are a traditionalist Catholic
You wish the church would revive the time-honored customs and strong institutional discipline that prevailed before the Second Vatican Council. Your favorite hymn is probably "Immaculate Mary," your favorite pope is Pius X, and your idea of a great Catholic movie is "The Bells of St. Mary's."

This isn't really true. Only the first sentence applies to me, and with qualification.

I have some great resources on this topic should you be interested. And, you could of course always refer to your catechism. The common doctrinal teaching is that yes...while the bread and wine become the body and blood they also keep their accidental forms of bread and wine. You are consuming His Body and Blood but also bread and wine. What faith we have to believe this that without question...This is the way.

Love the Eucharist...give thanks!!! Adore.

You're right curtins. At the moment of consecration the bread and wine are no more. The accidents of bread and wine are all that remains. Just an external 'appearance'.

I got 84...I think I got this when I took the same test about two years ago...

But when I took the test about what type of Christian I am it said fundamentalist :huh:

And when I took the "Belief-O-Matic" to see what religion I agree with the most (a horrible idea i would say in general) it said I was 99% Quaker :farmer:


So in summary, beliefnet has some strange quizzes....... :bugeyes:
