I like the way that environmentalism is now consider something to do with religion, muslims trying snatch it just klike the Christian church as been doing.

Apparently the death penalty is quite important to being muslim too.

I got 40% - slightly compatible but you cannever be quite sure how they're going to score you

48% I think they are lying.
The problem with fantasies is you can't really insist that everyone else believes in yours, the other problem with fantasies is that most believers of fantasies eventually get around to doing exactly that.

"50% - fairly compatible." Better dig out my scimitar, ditch the bacon, and fashion myself a prayer rug. Which way Mecca? It isn't hard for someone to design a test like that, throwing in some statements that you would be a total asshole to disagree with, and weigh the test in such a way that anyone is more or less "muslim". But those general, humanistic concepts are messed up by a controlling, nasty religion. Though the ages, religions have hijacked basic human decency and tried to tack theism on them.

"Be the change you want to see in the world."

I answered "undecided", as it isn't clear that change would be for the better if each and everyone lived by that.

Do you believe that mutual consultation should play a part in resolving the issues of the people?

Undecided there as well, as it isn't clear whether this means that one should use other channels than secular, official channels.

"Faith not supported by reason and empirical evidence is wishful thinking."

Considering that some muslims think that the Koran is the pinnacle of reason and empiricism, the question is loaded.

Do you believe it is an individual's duty to distribute some of their wealth to the needy and promote social welfare?

There is nothing that doesn't say that this couldn't be done through secular means, instead of organisations like the Muslim Brotherhood.

I guess with the right kind of questions, one could be 100% scientologist, too.

Yes, there are some very loaded questions there. I'm pretty sure you could mine a quote from the Qur'an that disagrees with the supposedly Islamic position on all of them too.

42% for me, for what it's worth. :grin:

60%. Gawd they are just hijacking humanism.

Compatibility with Islam has just two questions: do you believe in God ? and if the answer is yes then the next question is do you see worship of this god as your purpose ? And if the answer is yes then you are his servant.

If the answer is no then you are no one's bitch.

I tried and got 17% when I answered "no" on most questions. For #17, I answered "undecided". One must be more or less a complete asshole in order to not be a potential muslim, which only goes on to show that the creators of the questionaire use common secular/humanist arguments in a deceptive way.
