As far as I know, the Seventh-Day Adventist church is a fine organization with sound teaching. I can say I've never personally met an SDA adherent that I found anything to disagree with. Only problem is, I don't know any! However, I don't feel a strong need to leave my church or my denomination. If I ever do, I may well visit an SDA church to see how things go. I've got no beef with Saturday being a day of worship. I'm just not sure you can make a biblical case out of it since our current calendar was not in effect during Christ's day anyhow.

You may be surprised at what you learn. Did Jesus speak truth or was he a liar? Did the words he say have meaning? "Pray that your flight be not on the Sabbath day..." Who said that? Why would he tell people that statement if the Sabbath day is to mean nothing... Think, pray, study... Study to find God's truths not tainted by human speculations.. What doth the Word of God say? Love you.... I suggest that you do study your Bible with an open mind and go ahead and visit a Seventh Day Adventist Church. You may be surprised at what you learn.

“Pray that your flight be not on the Sabbath day…”

Like you, I don't think it's absolutely necessary to worship in an arbitrary day of the week that was arbitrarily set and named by pagan kings. However, I felt there was some slight justification for Sunday being preferred. So, I played with my answers on that one. Didn't change it. So, there must've been something else that I should've tweaked. Thanks for your compliment! Now, if I had the same traffic as a Hugh Hewitt, my Google ads would pay for my hosting costs!

I'm would bet that the Seventh Day Adventist result is due to your response to the T/F question "Sunday is the prefered day of worship." I'm not sure my wording is exact. I'm thinking you probably answered no — i normally would have as I don't really care what the name of the week is, we just need to observe the sabbath (or A day of rest). I left that one neutral and my 1st denomination was then the A/G. Kind of fun, but due to my two or three years of writing surveys — I don't put alot of weight in them. Your blog has become the first to check daily (Followed closely by Hugh Hewitt). :-) steve Rich -

Hoping I have found one more lace where even if we disagree, He remains Lord of the conversation.

You're right. Comical, yes. Informative? No. Most aggregate data can be packaged to favor the packager's viewpoint--even when it's not conscious. Regards, Rich. Hey, Oengus. You’re right.

I guess the results are somewhat comical. As for myself, I have never taken any of these quizzes. And I have learned never to believe polls. Hello, again. I guess the results are somewhat comical.
