Carol responds:
I wonder about the reliability of this survey. At any rate, my results
are rather surprisingly similar to yours:

1. 	Liberal Quakers  (100%)
2. 	Reform Judaism (100%)
3. 	Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (98%)
4. 	Neo-Pagan (96%)
5. 	Unitarian Universalism (93%)
6. 	Bahá'í Faith (92%)
7. 	Sikhism (87%)
8. 	New Age (85%)
9. 	Mahayana Buddhism (80%)
10. 	Theravada Buddhism (78%)
11. 	New Thought (73%)
12. 	Secular Humanism (73%)
13. 	Orthodox Quaker (70%)
14. 	Orthodox Judaism (67%)
15. 	Scientology (65%)

Carol, wondering if perhaps Protestants and neo-pagans have more in
common than either group thinks
