What fresh hell is this?
Apr. 30th, 2003 03:36 pmI couldn't resist this; I mean, it's literary.
It's clear from my Friends list that, as I always suspected, I will be in very good company in Hell.
I had a lot of trouble with the quiz and got a fair amount of gleeful grim ironic pleasure out of it too. I don't think I was very consistent. I know what I think sin is, and I know what the test conceives sin to be for its purposes, and there is not very much of a match there. I didn't always manage to stay in the fictional parameters, or out of them.
I am sorry if my next remark offends anybody, but my primary feeling as I finished was to think, "I am so glad I'm not a Christian." I suppose I should be more properly glad that I am not a medieval Italian Catholic.
Here you go:
"The Dante's Inferno Test has banished you to the Sixth Level of Hell - The City of Dis!
Here is how you matched up against all the levels:
Level | Score
Purgatory | Very Low
Level 1 - Limbo | High
Level 2 | High
Level 3 | High
Level 4 | Very Low
Level 5 | Low
Level 6 - The City of Dis | Very High
Level 7 | High
Level 8- the Malebolge | Moderate
Level 9 - Cocytus | Low

(I'm sorry, I've added you to my friends list because I was delighted to find that you have a livejournal; I hope you don't object to my taking this liberty!)
