Quiz: What kind of atheist are you?

I think it assumes you are an atheist. But maybe a theist here could take it and see.

I scored as a meditative atheist first, second was scientific.

These guys rule. I'm not one of them myself, although I play one online. They know the rules of debate, the Laws of Thermodynamics, and can explain evolution in fifty words or less. More concerned with how things ARE than how they should be, these are the people who will bring us into the future.

I'm a little embarrassed about the 'angry' score but otherwise I think it's got my number.

I'm going to take a wild guess and say that mine is not 100% Theist because of the bias of this quiz. A lot of questions assumed you were atheist to begin with, or had multiple parts, so not agreeing with one part of a statement meant you didn't agree with any of it. Willing to give it the benefit of the doubt, though, because it simply wasn't written for the theist.

Edit: Another bias that shows up is if you believe in Science, then you MUST be an atheist. Simply not true.

I don't consider this a very good quiz. I was particularly troubled by this statement:

There is definitely an objective moral quality to every action.

I do not see why there should be any a priori correlation between theism and a commitment to moral absolutism. There are certainly many theists and atheists who are moral subjectivits, as well as theists and atheists who believe that there are objective moral qualities. I find it difficult to imagine any theists or atheists however who believe that there is an objective moral quality to every action. Surely it is manifestly obvious that many actions are neutral and have no moral dimension.
