There's a bias in this one, everything is either/or and never both. Technical field OR arts. Left brain rational OR right brain creative. At least it stuck me on the edge of atheist and not in the middle where I definitely don't belong. Personally I would have put myself in the "Humanist" range.

I got irritated at the creative=spiritual, technical=!spiritual thing. I know a heck of a lot of geeks that are spiritual.

I think I'm wandering around the upper portion of Humanist. I'm somewhat hypocritical in matters of faith, if I've experienced it myself I'm more likely to believe others have but if I haven't I tend to be a bit more skeptical. Generally it doesn't matter since I really don't much care what people believe so long as it doesn't infringe on my rights. I don't need people to validate my beliefs and I don't much like having other people expecting me to validate theirs.

On more than one occasion I've had people get all offended because I won't debate faith with them. I don't get it. My disinterest in discussions of faith have nothing to do with being insecure in my own beliefs, or being some sort of "pagan apologist" hiding in a rabbit hole to avoid offense (weirdness like that is why I don't hang out in pagan lists/groups/communities now). I'm comfortable with my beliefs. I don't feel a need to discuss or defend them, and generally feel that people need to validate/reconcile/whatever for themselves.

Wow, that was kind of rant-y now wasn't it?
