Okay, I admit it, but I have an irrational infatuation with these crazy surveys. But the results of this one I could not have scripted any better . . .
You are Tertullian!
You possess many gifts, but patience isn’t one of them. You’re tough on yourself — and on others. You’re independent, too, and you don’t like to be told what to do. You wish the Church would be a little tighter in discipline. As for the pagans, you’ve pretty much written them off. Sometimes you think the Church would be a better place if you were in charge.

OKJ, “Tertullian,” I’ll give it a shot.
Umm…I guess I’m “Origen.”
Seeing how in college I was nearly “NASB only” while many of my buddies were KJVOs, perhaps the survey has merit. But why do I feel like I’ve just cracked open a fortune cookie? 🙂
Well, if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got to start brushing up on the allegorical hermeneutic for my Sunday homily….
