Which theologian are you? |
Apparently I'm like this guy, so I looked up a little about him:
"Saint Anselm of Canterbury (1033 – April 21, 1109) was an Italian medieval philosopher, theologian, and church official who held the office of Archbishop of Canterbury from 1093 to 1109. Called the founder of scholasticism, he is famous as the originator of the ontological argument for the existence of God and as the archbishop who openly opposed the Crusades."
Cool! Also, here is one of his more famous quotes which I really like:
"I hold it to be a failure in duty if after we have become steadfast in our faith we do not strive to understand what we believe."

I ended up with Karl Barth winning in a tiebreaker over Anselm.
You scored as a Karl Barth
The daddy of 20th Century theology. You perceive liberal theology to be a disaster and so you insist that the revelation of Christ, not human experience, should be the starting point for all theology.
Hi Brett, took the test and came out Calvin.
Caely took the test and........
