The Heresy Meter

HT JohnMcG for this "Are you a heretic?" test. We used to joke whenever someone would say something theologically iffy, "Hey, let's pull out the heresy meter!" Well, here it is on the ol' World Wide Web.

I passed... actually I don't understand the graph nor why mine is different than John's. Obviously some heresies are "less unorthodox" than others and therefore preferable, I suppose. I'm not sure if that explains their placement on the list. But take this little quiz, it's a good refresher course on what Christians believe about who Jesus Christ is.

You scored as Chalcedon compliant. You are Chalcedon compliant. Congratulations, you're not a heretic.

You believe that Jesus is truly God and truly man and like us in every respect, apart from sin.

Officially approved in 451.

  1. Wow. I'm ``Chalcedon compliant'' too but also a few other things I didn't suspect:

    Chalcedon compliant

    100%

    Monophysitism

    67%

    Pelagianism

    58%

    Modalism

    58%

    Nestorianism

    50%

    Arianism

    33%


    ...and the rest were all negligible. I think the problem is that I didn't understand some of the questions and put down the ``neither agree nor disagree'' answer as a substitute for ``Don't know.''
