Take the quiz if you have a sense of humor - if not you better move on (in more ways than one!) http://www.fathersofthechurch.com/quiz/

You’re St. Justin Martyr!
You have a positive and hopeful attitude toward the world. You think that nature, history, and even the pagan philosophers were often guided by God in preparation for the Advent of the Christ. You find “seeds of the Word” in unexpected places. You’re patient and willing to explain the faith to unbelievers.

Oh wow! I'm Origen - never would have guessed!
My wife laughed heartily when I shared the description from the online results (with op ed comments):
"You do nothing by half-measures [yep, that's me, alright]. If you’re going to read the Bible, you want to read it in the original languages [or more likely, I'd endeavor to become expert in modern and classical Greek before even commiting to that pursuit]. If you’re going to teach, you’re going to reach as many souls as possible, through a proliferation of lectures and books [a good message should always be delivered, hopefully heard]. If you’re a guy and you’re going to fight for purity … well, you’d better hide the kitchen shears [well, I don't know if I'd reach for weapons in the first instance, but I'd certainly be willing to put the gloves on, if provoked]."
That was fun - thanks!
I now have to read up on Origen!
