Defenders of the Faith Ping!!!

Find your SAT IQ? Based on the last question, this could be ugly for me.

Not a clue on #51, 52, 54. Very iffy on 28 and 43 and I have to admit, I probably got one or two out of order in 6. God Bless

#28 The Lord's Prayer.

#43 Solemnity of the Ascension.

#54 Joyful Mysteries: The Annunciation, The Visitation, The Nativity, The Presentation in the Temple, The Finding in the Temple.

Sorrowful Mysteries: The Agony in the Garden, The Scourging, The Crowning with Thorns, The Carrying of the Cross, The Crucifixion.

The Glorious Mysteries: The Resurrection, The Ascension, The Descent of the Holy Spirit, The Assumption, The Coronation.

Still trying to figure out what the third OT book in the Bible is which was named after a woman. I got Esther and Judith so far.

Happy St. Patrick's Day to you also!

The Hallmark cable channel has an hour long special on St. Patrick. Have you seen it? I watched it on tape last night. It was well done but I'm going to watch it again tonight because I didn't see anything about driving the snakes out of Ireland. Is that just a legend or an actual event?

A real event. But of course I am a believing Irish Catholic arch-conservative. Ask a Protestant or a liberal Catholic and get another answer.

The History channel had a special on St. Patrick this evening. Their contention was that there were never snakes in Ireland but the snakes are simply symbolic of the evil he displaced with Christianity. As you know, Ireland was an extremely barbaric country prior to St. Patrick.

I would have passed, but not with any thanks to 12 years of Catholic school. No one ever taught us the Myteries of the Rosary or the Corporal works of Mercy (I blanked on that one). I can guarantee that I'd be the only kid in my family to pass it, too.

Out of 62 questions? Depending on how each was weighted...I'd say 50-55 correct.

Ideally, they should all be correct, especially the objective ones, but really, for some of us who had abysmal catechesis, answering any of them correctly would be a miracle.

NWU, your bluntness made me laugh out loud!  I felt, for the most part, pretty good cruisin' along until I hit the fifties.  I knew it was comin' though.  :-)
Thank you for this post -- it will be useful and fun in some Catholic discussions (interest spurred by none other than The Passion of the Christ).
God Bless.
