Worldview

Russ sent me the link to a quiz. The first time I took it, I rated higher on the "Fundamentalist" scale than shows below:

You scored as Cultural Creative. Cultural Creatives are probably the newest group to enter this realm. You are a modern thinker who tends to shy away from organized religion but still feels as if there is something greater than ourselves. You are very spiritual, even if you are not religious. Life has a meaning outside of the rational. Cultural Creative 75% Postmodernist 63% Romanticist 56% Idealist 50% Fundamentalist 50% Modernist 38% Existentialist 13% Materialist 6% What is Your World View? (updated) created with QuizFarm.com

I didn't change any answers on purpose, honest. I actually thought it was spot on about my fundamentalist leanings, but it's probably not far off this second time around (69% vs. 50% above). When I think of "fundamentalist" in this context, I want it to mean that I take scripture seriously, allowing it to be literal as far as it can and then figurative as far as it can. I can live with the ambiguity that comes from not being able to mesh the traditional views with new interpretations. I want to let the Bible speak for itself - fundamentally speaking.
