You scored as Anselm.
Anselm is the outstanding theologian of the medieval period.He sees man's primary problem as having failed to render unto God what we owe him, so God becomes man in Christ and gives God what he is due. You should read 'Cur Deus Homo?'
I guess I'm a scholastic.

You scored as Karl Barth. http://images.quizfarm.com/1118147244BARTH.JPG
The daddy of 20th Century theology. You perceive liberal theology to be a disaster and so you insist that the revelation of Christ, not human experience, should be the starting point for all theology.
Hmmmmmmm...wouldn't have picked that meself. Well, at least I've broken Anselm's stranglehold over the anglican communion :-)

You scored as Paul Tillich.
Paul Tillich sought to express Christian truth in an existentialist way. Our primary problem is alienation from the ground of our being, so that our life is meaningless. Great for psychotherapy, but no longer very influential.

dun dun dun...
we have a tie breaker...
the questions are...

Man's main sin is failing to give to God the obedience that we owe him
i'm going to take a guess and say it's a tie breaker between Anselm and Barth.

St. Anselm (fair enough) 100%
Karl Barth (dunno enough about him really to comment properly, although i have heard negative comments from Reformed people about his view of the inspiration of Sacred Scripture) 100%
Martin Luther (guess that comes from the "faith alone" question) 80%
Friedrich Schleiermacher (dunno who this is) 67%
St. Augustine (yippee!) 67%
John Calvin (fair enough, i'll settle for that) 60%

I tried to get all of the major people. But it seems to be based on Anselm and Barth, though i tried one other time and got Tillich. It seems he based everything on ten questions that will determine what you get. Try agreeing or disagreeing with all of them and see the major ten questions, that will corespond to one of the ten below.
Anselm (1033-1109) medieval theologian and Philosopher, archbishop of Canterbury. Founder of Scholasticism and Ontological argument for the existence of God.
John Calvin (1509-1564) French Christian Theologian of the Protestant Reformation. Founder of Calvinism.
Martin Luther (1483-1546) A German Monk, Priest, Theologian and Professor. Started the Reformation.
Paul Johannes Tillich (1886-1965) A German-American Theologian and Christian Existentialist Philosopher.
Jürgen Moltmann (1926-) a Christian Theologian.
Jonathan Edwards (1703-1758) an American Congrational preacher and theologian.
Charles Finney (1792-1875) an American revialist and preacher of the Second Great Awakening.
Friedrich Schleiermacher (1768-1834) a Theologian and Phliosopher.
Karl Barth (1886-1968) a Swiss Reformed Theologian and leader and thinker of the Neo-Orhodox movement.
Augustine (354-430) a theologian,monk and among others. Known to be one of the greatest influences of the Christian Church.

The problem of evil is central to your thought, and only a crucified God can show that God is not indifferent to human suffering. Christian discipleship means identifying with suffering but also anticipating the new creation of all things that God will bring about.
