But examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good; abstain from every form of evil. 1 Thessalonians 5:21-22

My Eucharistic Theology
You scored as Zwingli. You are Ulrich Zwingli. You believe that bread and wine are mere symbols of the absent Jesus. You believe in interpreting Scripture reasonably.
As I suspected I ranked highest a hodling a Calvinistic view--but I take exception to the description of this as Nestorian.
WHoever did this quiz obviously doesn't understand the Calvinistic view properly. It's their right to disagree with it--but they ought to present it properly.
The only reason I can see for describing it as Nestorian is that the Calvinistic view is neither Trans-or con-substantial which has some degree of wooden literalness to "This is my body" nor the Zwinglian view that it is all figurative.
I guess the author of this quiz doesn't get how someone could believe somewhere in the middle--Jesus is present spiritually--but not physically. SOmehow that become dividing the natures of Christ. Oh well.

Mostly I do these for fun anyway.
Your right this is not a very good quiz, but you know it is just for fun.
True it's for fun--but my suspicion is that it was done by a Lutheran or a Catholic...
