Did you look at the quiz? Out of 16 questions, I could only reasonably answer 10, having to choose "not sure" and low priority for the remaining six. It is too bad that the author of the quiz included Presbyterian/Reformed as an option for a denomination because the choices did not present correct doctrine as taught by Presbyterian/Reformed confessions as a choice. It skewed the results.

My favorite question was about moderate drinking and dancing. A high priority for me!

While some of the questions did not perfectly set out the doctrine, the 'Presbyterian' choice was obvious for all.

I'm pausing in my moderate dancing to respond and say "Hi, Suzy!" 8~)

I agree. The questions certainly didn't portray Presbyterian/Reformed correctly.

The baptism question was unanswerable, and the "correct" answer to #3 for a Presbyterian is wrong -- "God predestines all things, and elects some people to salvation while actively reprobating others and sending them to Hell (in a manner consistent with second causes, namely their free will)."

"Reprobating others???"

"free will second causes???"

Someone needs to spend more time on the FR religion forum. 8~)
