JosephM Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 A Poll to get an idea of the makeup of this board. Choose the closest label that you feel you fit in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 Joseph, is there any way to make it so that more than one label can be chosen? ws Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JosephM Posted November 11, 2011 Author Share Posted November 11, 2011 Bill, Don't know for 100% sure. It doesn't look like it. I can edit choices but only one vote per user is allowed as far as i can see unless i edit the votes? But that wouldn't be a good way to get a good picture. Do you think there is enough choices as listed? if not what should be added? I noticed it says 3 voted but only shows 2 recorded for some reason?

BillM Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 Joseph, you and the other mods probably have a good handle on the breadth of beliefs or faiths here on this board, so your choices are probably pretty good. About the only other one that came to my mind is "Mystic." As for me, I am, as of this moment (ha ha), a Progressive Christian Deist with strong humanist leanings.

JenellYB Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 Christian mystic. Only thing on list as it is would be 'other' for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glintofpewter Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 closest is progressive as along as it is a big tent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JosephM Posted November 11, 2011 Author Share Posted November 11, 2011 Jenell, Since these are rather broad classifications. Perhaps Christian Mystic could fit either under Progressive Christianity, Denominational Christianity or Non-denomination Christianity since it is an applicable element in all three. Whichever one you most closely identify with would be fine.. Otherwise I'd need way more than 15 choices and i suspect that probably no-one here really fits perfectly under one label as Wayseeker has pointed out with himself. I think as Dutch pointed out also with PC ( some of them are pretty 'big tents' ) Perhaps peoples beliefs are just too complex for an exact definition by a single selection? Your best shot will do. "Other" is fine if you feel it is the closest for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JenellYB Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 Progressive Christianity it is, then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I clicked on " Other" because you didn't have it and that would be me. Thank you for having me. Linda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glintofpewter Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 Welcome to the board, Linda.. Is that Spiritual - but not religious? Please consider letting us know more about yourself in the Introductions forum. Glad you are here.. Dutch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick the Nevermet Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 I put Denominational Christian, based on my interested in Reformed Christianity and my acceptance of Nicea & Chalcedon. I also consider myself Progressive, but in this context, I felt identifying myself as Denominational the better choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
