Interesting stuff. You can find it at http://quizfarm.com/test.php?q_id=131773

For the record, I scored as "Chalcedon compliant. You are Chalcedon compliant. Congratulations, you're not a heretic. You believe that Jesus is truly God and truly man and like us in every respect, apart from sin. Officially approved in 451."

Wow those questions were hard, but definetly made me think Im an idiot, I should be studying more on nature,divinity,God,Jesus ,Holy spirit,matter,etc and not on who is the best Metropolitan....
lets just say I scored a whopping ????? Im not gonna disclose my grade, But I will say this if I was alive in the year 681 and i disclosed the anwer to those questions on that site, Id be condemned by the sixt ecumenical council as a Monophysite o.k. here is my score,
You scored as Monophysitism.

You are a monophysite. You do not hold to the idea of a hypostatic union of the divine and human in the person of Christ and instead hold that Christ had only one nature, which is a fusion of the divine and human. Condemned at the Sixth Ecumenical Council in 681.

Monarchianism
67%
Apollanarian

I'm struggling to see how I scored so highly for Pelagianism and Nestorianism. Perhaps it's because some of the questions were poorly phrased, in the negative, and had a scale of answers rather than one simple yes or no.

Still, overall, it was good.

Being rather sad and having nothing to do, i've taken the test a few times.

Many of the phrases come in two parts, one of which is true and the other of which is false (e.g. The Father, Son, and Spirit all exist, but never at the same time.). If you choose anything but the extremes of agreeing or disagreeing, you are assumed to be agreeing or disagreeing equally with the false part as well as the true part, which is just silly.

Secondly, rejection of inherited sin from Adam is lumped together with Pelagianism, so if you're Orthodox, you automatically get labelled Pelagian, regardless of whether you actually are.

The quiz appears to have been written from a RC perspective.
