Hermeneutics Quiz

Christianity Today has a hermeneutics quiz. It rates your hermeneutic, with the lower the score the more conservative or literalist you are. What title is the right one for each position would be a matter of debate itself.

I scored 60, and 53-65 is moderate, so I guess I am a moderate moderate! Lots of the questions I wanted to write an essay about and struggled to fit my response in any category, but you've got to give some answer or the quiz dosen't work. Scot McKnight, who crafted the quiz, gives his commentary on it, and some of the views that he thinks are contradictory don't seem that to me. I think there is a consistent redemptive-historical hermeneutic which deals with many of these questions.

I'll be interested to hear what everyone else scores!
