    I’m not very good at Church history, but wasn’t Wesley that guy that stood on the corner and yelled at people alot? And he was one of 26 children or something like that? Or was that Jonathan Goforth? I guess I need to go sign up at the Methodist church.

  2. I don’t really know but I scanned this article and didn’t see anything about 25 siblings or yelling at people.

  9. OK, fine - I broke down and did it: Evangelical Holiness/Wesleyan

    The thing I dislike about all these types of character analysis studies, *especially* this one, is that the questions are often messed up, or too designed to lead you into choosing between things that don’t oppose each other. There are a lot of “X is more important than Y”, when both X and Y are vitally important.

  10. yeah, I totally agree. This one was nice because it had a lot of questions, but some of them were messed up.

  11. It did have to ask me a tie-breaker though: Which do you think is “more” true:
    1. God’s grace enables us to respond to him
    or 2. Older churches are unintelligible to modern people

    If I would have picked #2, I would have been “Emergent/Postmodern”. But this is the kind of question that sort of bugs me; just because I feel that a lot of older churches actually are unintelligible to modern people, I would never make that kind of blanket statement without qualification.

    In addition, there were all sorts of questions about the styles of “worship”, but they were only referring to musical worship, not a whole life lived before God, which is our real “worship”. I guess this is the kind of thing that I don’t like about these surveys: I always want to not pick a box but rather write a few pages about why the question is wrong to begin with.

  12. I thought the same thing about that question. Even if every church I had ever gone to was an “older” church and had seemed to me that it was unintelligible to “modern” people I still would have to disagree with that statement 100%. Not to mention I have no idea what an older church is or what a modern person is.

  14. I couldn’t back down from Nate’s taunt about the questions being too hard; he practically triple dog dared me to do it.
