The choices were not so good.

I scored as a Puritan 88%
Baptist 87%
Calvinist 67%
Pentecostal 54%
Methodist 50%
Lutheran 24%

About 90 plus % of Puritans were Calvinists. Richard Baxter is a notable exception.
I don't understand why I scored anything in the Pentecostal, Methodist and
Lutheran categories.

Because you agree with some of those denominations.
For example, I scored 7 % as RC - They also believe Jesus is God the Son -

I know you're joking, but the Puritans were not puritanical. Calvin wasn't a Calvinist and Jesus wasn't a Christian.

But He was Christ, and Christianity should be Christlike.

I am a Bible-Believing-Christian first. I go to a Baptist church because I read my Bible eighteen years while in another denomination and then found out Baptists believe what I believe, so I joined them. My beliefs did not come from my church; my church came from my beliefs.

Other than the 90, it gave numbers that added together, far exceed 90. And it gave me "labels" I don't identify with at all. I'll take the 90, because it got nine out of ten correct, but I consider it 100.
