I have entered the beliefs of British Elves (as I imagine them) into the
Religions selector as best as I could (there are some traits that are
missed completely by the questionnarie, especially the importance of
artistic creativity which is essentially a discipline of faith among the
Elves), and the top scores were thus:
1. Neo-Pagan (100%)
2. Unitarian Universalism (94%)
3. Liberal Quakers (92%)
4. New Age (91%)
5. Mahayana Buddhism (85%)
At the bottom of the list were:
23. Mainline to Conservative Christian/Protestant (30%)
24. Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) (29%)
25. Eastern Orthodox (23%)
26. Roman Catholic (23%)
27. Jehovah's Witness (21%)
BTW:
I also ran an estimation of the Taliban's (Gurth na nDaliban!) beliefs
through it, and the results were:
1. Orthodox Judaism (100%) [interesting!]
2. Islam (97%) [even though Talibanism is a far cry from true Islam]
3. Jehovah's Witness (85%)
4. Sikhism (84%)
5. Jainism (83%) [surprise!]
Hardly surprising, secular humanism finished at #27 (5%).
