This survey is inaccurate. It doesn't describe the churches (denominations) contemporary theology.

Bill, I would say Scripture DOES have commandments to care for one another. I think many times we look at one specific Scripture without realizing we need to look at Scripture in light of Scripture while in an innerant way. Doesn't Scripture say "Love your neighbor as yourself."?

The quiz is an interesting idea, but it's a rather poorly designed instrument. For one thing, there are far too many false dichotomies for it to be useful. Why is understanding the historical context of a passage "progressive"? Why is recognizing the occasional nature of much of the Bible opposed to the idea of inerrancy? There's no inherent tension between the Bible being God's word for all time and our need to apply it contemporary settings. The relationship of the NT to the OT, how we apply God's timeless truth, and what we think it means that Christ has fulfilled the Law are serious and deep questions which go beyond simple labels like "conservative" and "progressive." I think this quiz only touches on these issues in a shallow, proof-texting kind of way. I think the quiz finally tells me more about McKnight's hermeneutics than mine.
