Funny Finney
Reading up on Jim’s
weblog, I came across a quiz: "Which theologian are
you?"
It seems heavily weighted towards those theologians that would be
interesting to those in Reformed circles (Karl Barth is like a
Reformed demigod; Charles Finney started out Presbyterian; Calvin was
a huge reformer; Augustine is their most ancient saint; etc.) but I
suppose that since Jim is
the one that pointed to the quiz, I shouldn't be too surprised.
According to the quiz, I'm most similar to the anti-hero Charles
Finney. I can say that I've heard Orthodox theology mistaken for the
Pelagian Heresy -- something Finney gets accused of here -- but I
suspect that is because people don't understand the original heresy
nor Orthodox theology.
You scored as Charles
Finney. You're passionate about God and love to preach the
Gospel. Your theology borders on pelagianism and it
is said that if God were taken out of your theology, it would look
exactly the same.
