I took this test and I thought it was pretty fun. It measures how consistent your beliefs are, regardless of whether you're atheist or religious. My score is 2 direct hits and 1 bullet bitten.

Battleground Analysis
Congratulations!
You have been awarded the TPM medal of distinction! This is our second highest award for outstanding service on the intellectual battleground.
The fact that you progressed through this activity being hit only once and biting very few bullets suggests that your beliefs about God are well thought out and almost entirely internally consistent.
The direct hit you suffered occurred because one set of your answers implied a logical contradiction. The bitten bullets occurred because you responded in ways that required that you held views that most people would have found strange, incredible or unpalatable. At the bottom of this page, we have reproduced the analyses of your direct hit and bitten bullets.
Because you only suffered one direct hit and bit very few bullets, you qualify for our second highest award. A good achievement!

Plausibility Quotient = 1.0
The metaphysical engineers have determined that your conception of God has a plausibility quotient (PQ) of 1.0. A PQ of 1.0 means that as far as the metaphysical engineers can determine your conception of God is internally consistent and consistent with the universe that we live in. A PQ of 0.0 means that it is neither internally consistent nor consistent with our universe. More than likely, your PQ score will be somewhere between these two figures. But remember that this is your PQ score as determined by the metaphysical engineers. The editors of TPM have no control over their deliberations, so don't blame us!
What kind of God is that!?
The metaphysical engineers are happy to report that, to the best of their knowledge, the God you conceive is internally consistent and could exist in our universe. But they are less sure that what you have described deserves the name of God. She is not, for example, all-powerful. A God which knows everything or is totally benign may be a wonderful ideal, but is she really a God unless she has ultimate power?
We suspect that your God is not the traditional God of the Christian, Jewish or Muslim faiths.
I'm agnostic... the only thing I selected was
"Perfectly Free"
as the other options don't meld with my concept of what any possible supreme being would be accurately described as.
:D

Yes I agree this is interesting. I scored one direct hit. Here is their explanation:
"Earlier you said that it is not justifiable to base one's beliefs about the external world on a firm, inner conviction, paying no regard to the external evidence, or lack of it, for the truth or falsity of this conviction, but now you say it's justifiable to believe in God on just these grounds. That's a flagrant contradiction!"
However, this is a flagrant contradiction only if you believe God is part of the external world. One does not have to justify what is in one's internal world as long as it does not impede others rights or impede a community project in which one has a stake.

Well, it said I got the third highest medal, whatever that means. Maybe it is 1/3 ?? It was interesting, but I would like to argue their logic.
