Meandering Shawarma

We are all nomads, bedouins and gypsies --- always on our feet in quest for glory, fortune, love, happiness and fulfillment. I am Filipino yet the best part of my life has been spent in the vast deserts of the Middle East. My culture clashed with a lot of things. Sometimes, I see a different person in the mirror. I am a shawarma. I am a meandering shawarma. My quest is to be home soon. How soon? Only this blog will eventually tell.

I never thought am orthodox!

I saw the Belief-O-Matic quiz link on the blogs of Ms. Jen. She took it and turned out that she should have been a Quaker. I figured out that it wouldn't harm me if I also try. I did and guess I should be a Quaker too! Really now?!

Your Results: The top score on the list below represents the faith that Belief-O-Matic, in its less than infinite wisdom, thinks most closely matches your beliefs. However, even a score of 100% does not mean that your views are all shared by this faith, or vice versa.

Belief-O-Matic then lists another 26 faiths in order of how much they have in common with your professed beliefs. The higher a faith appears on this list, the more closely it aligns with your thinking.

01. Orthodox Quaker (100%)
02. Seventh Day Adventist (83%)
03. Mainline to Conservative Christian/Protestant (81%)

Hi Nomel,

It appears that there might be a good little revival of Quakerism in the 21st Centurty.

I am not opposed to belief system that is a proponent of faith, hope, love, education, equality, quietness, direct connection with God (no priests or clerics in Quakerism, priesthood of all believers), and non-violence. In fact, I do believe the above would be a nice little prescription for the world today.

;o)
