Understand the 12 axes
Leaning Religious: Religion
27.6–42.5% Irreligious · 57.5–72.4% Religious
What this band means
Leaning Religious covers 27.6–42.5% Irreligious. Your answers favor Religious, with a moderate preference in this part of the questionnaire. Irreligious positions give less authority to religious belief and religious institutions. Religious positions assign greater importance to faith, sacred commitments and religious influence. The axis captures responses to the questionnaire, not membership of a particular denomination. A religious affiliation does not set this score. Declining to choose an affiliation also does not force the result toward the Irreligious pole. This band describes the direction and distance of your score from the center, rather than the percentage of people who agree with you. Two people in the same band can still disagree on particular policies. Their remaining eleven axes may also differ substantially. Use the sample statements to identify the trade-offs that produced this part of your result. The catalog examples below offer points of comparison within the model; they are not a survey of quiz participants.
