quiz: which church father are you?

Pop-Up Pope

If you think about it, any answer to this except possibly “Divided by Zero” would be unexpected.

You’re St. Melito of Sardis!

You have a great love of history and liturgy. You’re attached to the traditions of the ancients, yet you recognize that the old world — great as it was — is passing away. You are loyal to the customs of your family, though you do not hesitate to call family members to account for their sins.

Find out which Church Father you are at The Way of the Fathers!

Oh, yeah, that’s me to a tee. Well, the last line is. And no, I don’t know why it insists on hanging to the left wall like a tadpole gripping the side of the pool at swim class.

  1. DUDE.. WTF?!

    You are St. Jerome!

    You’re a passionate Christian, fiercely devoted to Jesus Christ and his Church. You are willing to labor long hours in the Lord’s vineyard, and you have little patience with those who are less willing or able to work as you do. Your passions often carry you into temptation zones of wrath, lust, and pride.

    I highly doubt that… except the last line.

  2. You’re St. Justin Martyr!

    You have a positive and hopeful attitude toward the world. You think that nature, history, and even the pagan philosophers were often guided by God in preparation for the Advent of the Christ. You find “seeds of the Word” in unexpected places. You’re patient and willing to explain the faith to unbelievers.

    Feh. “Martyr”: an ancient Greek word meaning “nice guys finish last.”

  3. I have a theory that this quiz was designed by Chris Hanson. I bet he’s somewhere there ready to take your born-again priests into custody.

    Jerome?
    Call me Jerry.
