One last quiz...

This will be the last quiz for now. It takes 3 key doctrines from each of the theologians and you rate them accordingly. They're a fairly mixed bunch but probably the theologians I know best. Take the test here. I came out as Calvin, which I was surprised by. That said, a lot of what is called Calvinism (with which I have some strong disagreements) originated with his followers rather than Calvin himself. Here's my results:

You scored as John Calvin. Much of what is now called Calvinism had more to do with his followers than Calvin himself, and so you may or may not be committed to TULIP, though God's sovereignty is all important. John Calvin 100% Anselm 80% Karl Barth 80% Jürgen Moltmann 73% Martin Luther 67% Augustine 60% Paul Tillich 47% Jonathan Edwards 40% Friedrich Schleiermacher 40% Charles Finney 33% Which theologian are you? created with QuizFarm.com

I’m John Calvin, too, which disturbs me slightly, as there’s a possibility I’m an open theist (although I’m undecided as yet).

Very interesting. I came out as 87 percent Anselm, 73 Luther, 67 Barth, 53 Calvin and Schliermacher, and only47 Edwards. I am deeply surprised. I’d be interested to know how the quiz was devised.

Also, Sven, you side banners run down the middle of my page and stop me reading your posts properly at the moment.

How about posting blurbs on each theologian? Or maybe now I need to do more research on these guys who I’m ranked in greatest agreement with… Interesting quiz, though. Thanks. Oh, by the way, I’m 60% Calvin too… I didn’t think I was a Calvinist, but maybe 60% at the top rank means I don’t clearly fall into any category?

Moltmann 53%, Calvin 40%, Barth 40%

Nice mix, IMO!

Even better, I was only 7% Edwards, which sounds about right.

Anselm 73%
Jürgen Moltmann 60%
Karl Barth 60%
Charles Finney 53%
Friedrich Schleiermacher 53%

Which theologian are you?
Another quiz from Sven, this time to test which of the great theologians you are most like.

You scored as Jürgen Moltmann. The problem of evil is central to your thought, and only a crucified God can show that God is not indifferent to human suffering. Christian discipleship means identifying with suffering but also anticipating the new creation of all things that God will bring about.

53% Jürgen Moltmann
40% John Calvin
40% Karl Barth
27% Anselm
20% Charles Finney
20% Paul Tillich
20% Martin Luther
13% Augustine
7% Jonathan Edwards
7% Friedrich Schleiermacher
