Next time I might be a Zoroastrian or something... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexander Posted November 20, 2003 Report Share Posted November 20, 2003 1. Secular Humanism (100%) 2. Unitarian Universalism (99%) 3. Liberal Quakers (88%) 4. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (83%) 5. Theravada Buddhism (71%) 6. Nontheist (68%) 7. Neo-Pagan (68%) 8. Bahá'à Faith (55%) 9. New Age (53%) 10. Taoism (50%) Interesting. Nontheist came in at #6! The problem is that they didn't distinguish between those who do not believe in God, and those who aren't sure. If they had made a separate category for "Does not believe," I think Nontheist (or Atheist) would have had a higher ranking for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

king ubu Posted November 20, 2003 Report Share Posted November 20, 2003 And could someone please explain what no. 5 "Bahá'à Faith (78%)" means? Dizzy Gillespie was a Bahá'Ã, for however much that is worth. Jim, you know about a theologist article about Dizzy Gillespie and his religious beliefs you could recommend? ubu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeweil Posted November 20, 2003 Report Share Posted November 20, 2003 Jim, you know about a theologist article about Dizzy Gillespie and his religious beliefs you could recommend? Not quite, but I know another jazz musician who is a Baha'i, conga drummer Tom Nicholas, who hails from Philadelphia but moved to Europe in the 1970's. Their central temple in Germany is about 10 miles from where I live, a beautiful place on a mountainrange with an equally tolerant atmosphere without any missionary overtones, so for those interested: Official Baha'i Website Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
