Grew up in the Church of Jesus Christ and Latter Day Saints and Roman Catholic traditions, including a stint at a Catholic school; somewhat sadly, before the point at which young women (people - not the misogynist Mormon class) wore kilts. Attended church until a teen, but held atheist sentiments from a young age, despite being in a family full of believers. This is a place for my thoughts regarding religion on both a personal level and relating to the world, of which I am a member... And Mormons say journals are a good thing :)

God Gene

There's a quiz about the God Gene, or peoples predisposition to religiosity (Really, it's just the "Big 5" psychological test)

If you score:
E+ your reasons are extrinsic
A++C+ your reasons are intrinsic
O+C+ your reasons are questing
E+A++C+ your reasons are both extrinsic and intrinsic
E+O+C+ Your reasons are extrinsic and questing
A++C+O+ Your reasons are intrinsic and questing
E+A++C+O+ You are the ultimate worshiper because you have three reasons to go


My Score: E-A--C--N+O=
5% likely to have The God Gene

So, if I'm reading this correctly, my motivations are not extrinsic, nor are they intrinsic, but I am questing for something (N = ?); but I can deduct that it is not a higher power, seeing as my Gene score is so low.
