The more I learn .... the more I realize how much I don’t know. Fortunately, I have my faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
That's because they are tighter than they "really are". That is, they are tighter de facto than they are de jure.
Got 14 out of 15.
Thought a teacher could read from the Bible as an example of literature. They read from other religions.
Guess we are on the outs.
Oh well, I’m off to the lions den.
Interesting that they didn’t ask any muslims whether they knew that mohamed (may pigs be upon him) raped a 9 yr old girl.
Reflects the organization of the Mormon church. Whatever one thinks of their doctrines, Mormons do take their religion seriously and try to pass it on to their children.
Overall, this study is a major embarrassment. I am told that: "You scored 15 out of 15, better than 99% of Americans." In fact, any literate American should know these elementary religion facts.
US Catholic Priests, Bishops, Archbishops and Cardinals should be on their knees, sweating blood and praying for forgiveness for failure to transmit the central truth of The Eucharist!
This is proof positive that the Novus Order Mass, which was written by a suspected Mason, is an instrument that furthers Satan's War on Salvation. Please bring back the Traditional Tridentine Latin Mass for the salvation of the flock
That is a history answer, not a Christian answer, it helps for people to know history but Martin Luther is not a biblical figure, or a holy figure, he is a historical figure.
This is about religion in general, including five answers that were of religions that are not Christian or Jewish and other answers of history or of law.
It is not a test about Christianity, so the results are pretty unimportant.
So you ask "what does that mean"... and they get a blank look.
I can't speak for others, but as a relatively new pastor, I can speak for at least some Christian denominations - we have completely missed the point of Christ's Great Commission - we have tried to sum it up as "go get folks to wear this name badge that says "Christian"... For many of us, that meant get them to profess faith in Christ, dunk-em, and add them to a list (aka - "Church Roll"). Yet the Great Commission doesn't say that at all - it says "Go make Disciples..." That means teaching them ALL that Christ commanded/taught. Making disciples is also more than just telling someone in a Sunday School class... it is demonstrating what faith REALLY means. It means taking time with people, holding their hand, and showing...
For us Christians - it is our own fault.
Maybe someone else can pipe in for other faiths...
Thought you all might be interested in this.
I don’t have an Inman list but maybe they will find it interesting.
I grew up Christian, but have no religion now, so I guess I am in the atheist category.
I got 15 out of 15.
As far as I am concerned, most 8th graders should know the answers to the questions if they have been awake for most of their lives. The quiz is not even a religious quiz as it is just having a basic understanding of trivia.
I think the hardest question was the Jonathan Edwards question and I remember that from the my US history class in junior high.
And forgive me if I sound like a know it all; I have actually learned a lot about religion from some of the religion threads on Free Republic.
Some of the religious folks here really know their stuff. This lame quiz doesn’t compare to their erudition which I am in awe of.

Maybe we are not expected to argue over the number of angels that can fit on the head of a pin?

“You answered 15 out of 15 questions correctly
for a score of 100%.”
Take that ya high-faluting atheists!
Perfect Score, thanks to reading and interests, not school.
I did it and only missed one thing (the early preacher), and thus scored with the rest of my coreligionists, at the top. :)
