You’re Origen!
You do nothing by half-measures. If you’re going to read the Bible, you want to read it in the original languages. If you’re going to teach, you’re going to reach as many souls as possible, through a proliferation of lectures and books. If you’re a guy and you’re going to fight for purity … well, you’d better hide the kitchen shears


??? LOL!

Dear Alexandr:
My guess would be because you like share Tertullian's zeal for the sort of holiness of life that should set the Church apart from the world. There is a joke that Tertullian was so rigourous that he left the Church to become a Montanist, and then when the Montanists were not rigourous enough for him, he left the Montanists and became a Tertullianist. My guess is that had Tertullian not become a schismatic, he would ultimately have been recognized as a saint.

Heh! I took the quiz and discovered I was St. Melito of Sardis!

Their reasons---->You have a great love of history and liturgy. You’re attached to the traditions of the ancients, yet you recognize that the old world — great as it was — is passing away. You are loyal to the customs of your family, though you do not hesitate to call family members to account for their sins.

Does this make me a byzcath?

Well, I'm Tertullian.

I've actually never read any of his works!
