yes, it's a playbuzz quiz, but it got me pretty right

which disciple am i?
http://www.playbuzz.com/andrewatkins10/which-disciple-are-you?ff=1

You are most like James
Like James, you are a systematic and incisive thinker. You voraciously ingest information and apply sharp logical analysis to produce sound insights and strategies. You are focused and determined, and you let little stand in the way of achieving your goals. You never back down from an argument once you are sure you have thought things through.

However, like James, your unbending logic may be a bit too biting. Like a true "Son of Thunder" your ambition and temper may be perceived by others as callous and stinging. Your rough edge may alienate your audience, even if your insights are correct. And your persistent focus on accuracy and improvement may make you a target of those wishing to preserve the status quo.

Your role as a disciple of Christ is that of a reliable expert and truth-teller. You don't mince words, and you bring clarity and consistency to the more ambiguous matters of religion and spirituality. Other people look to you for sound teaching as you fight for truth until the end.

I guess James was an INTJ! Also, I like how the author doesn't say that your/James's arguments are ever WRONG, but that others may perceive them as too biting and lacking compassion. He or she must know some INTJs. ;)

I think I've taken that one before, as I remember getting John before (the disciple Jesus loved! :D ):

Like John, you are a deeply spiritual and emotional person. You are a keen observer of relationships and personal character, often seeing connections and patterns that others miss. You are an imaginative dreamer with a strong grasp of spiritual matters and the purpose of human existence. You can also be extremely dedicated and loving.

However, like John, you may have a fierce nature. Like a true "Son of Thunder" you may be prone to believing that your spiritual intuition elevates you above others. You may see yourself as morally superior to those less spiritually attuned than you. This [is] a side of yourself you must temper with love and understanding.

Your role as a disciple of Christ is one of a visionary or prophet. You speak the truth as you see it, even if it can't be proven or isn't popular. Others may see you as mystical or possessing a connection with Christ that goes beyond their comprehension. Yet, in your most honest moments, you know that your greatest strength lies not in your love for Christ, but in His love for you.

***Bonus*** The Biblical woman who best matches your personality is: MARY, sister of Lazarus and Martha

(Also, I always think I relate more to Mary than Martha -- for better and worse.)
