Which kind of monk are you?

Find out which kind of Christian monk you are! This is intended for fun, and not for any serious theological consideration or vocational directive. These questions are highly generalized so don't be offended if you are one of the monastics listed and don't agree with the assessment. I repeat: THIS IS JUST FOR FUN!!!

1. You see someone shoplifting food. How do you react?

You don't get out so you never saw this anyway.
You feel a righteous indignation and audibly clear your throat while staring at them intently.
This reminds you of how sin hurts everybody so you walk away and quietly pray for the person.
You know this person must be in need, so you go up to them and sincerely offer to buy the item they just pocketed.

2. You are attacked on the street. What do you do?

Ask him what brought him to this point and then let him cry on your shoulder.
Rebuke the thug for his evil ways and preach him a good long sermon.
You were never on the street. You never leave the monastery so you couldn't find your way to the corner store to get robbed in the first place.
Immediately bind the spirit of evil within the thug.

3. You choose to help people by...

Ministering to those who come to the monastery for guidance.
Praying for them while secluded from the rest of the world.
Engaging in social activism on a local and global level if possible.
Preaching the gospel to them and bringing them to the light.

4. You have a theological disagreement with someone. How do you feel about this?

You're right. They're wrong. You tell them so, politely at first but still resolved to make them see things your way.
The only other people you have contact with are those who think just like you do, so the disagreement never took place.
You can completely understand their point of view and tell them so. The debate ends very amicably.
You really do feel you're right. But you leave the conversation with every intention of reviewing her side of things and praying for discernment in the meantime.

5. You have some free time on your hands. You choose to do what?

Read a 13th century essay on spirituality.
Volunteer at a local soup kitchen.
Be a guest lecturer at a local church.
Tend the small flowers and vegetable plants outside your small walled in garden.

6. You decide to get a pet. What will it be?

A dog, because you want a pet as emotionally expressive as you are.
A talking parrot, so you have someone to practice your sermons on.
An iguana, because it is silent, eats the bugs out of your small garden and doesn't get in the way of the people who bring you your food.
A cat, because although it likes the occasional attention, it shares your need for peace and quiet.
