However this one is minorly one or two badly-designed questions such as:
There is little or no human element in the Bible, it is a divine book
Maldesigned because it's asking you to agree once to potentially two not-necessarily-co-ordinated statements. E.g. I disagree (strongly) that the Bible has little or no human element but agree that it is a divine book (a position I take to be mainstream evangelical). Also I was puzzled over how to answer
We cannot understand God without looking first at humanity. "understand" is a big word, and I'm aware of apophatic issues here.... Oh well, that'll be a midpoint answer then.
And I had my doubts about some questions of this type:
Jesus was an excellent moral teacher who's example we should do our best to followbecause while I knew what they were aiming at I'm not sure how I'd interpret the data captured by it. 'Disagree' might actually signal someone who reads/hears that as basically a defining position of certain types of liberal theology. However, taken at mere face-value surely most Christians would agree including many who would disagree if the statement had "no more than" in it (e.g. "Jesus was no more than an excellent moral teacher who's example we should do our best to follow").

Amazingly enough, i was 79% "Reformed Evangelical" and 71% "Evangelical Holiness/Wesleyan" - but i totally agree with you, these quizzes are really badly designed (repetitive, loosely worded, ambiguous) !
