 take the....Religious Knowledge Quiz!
Hey kids! Click here to take a 15-question quiz about U.S. Religious Knowledge. Your answers are compared to the results of a diverse group of random Americans. My score: 13/15, which more than qualifies me to run for Archbishop of somewhere, I'm sure.

 Re: take the....Religious Knowledge Quiz!
I scored a perfect 15/15! I think I'm qualified to be an atheist rabbi.
Lachry, did the quiz tell you which ones you got wrong?

I thought you might qualify for that, Neph....
If you click the button at the bottom of the screen you'll see how you compared to others who took the quiz (for the tabulated score); and your wrong answers are on the last page.

I was just kidding when I said I think I must qualify as an atheist rabbi! But I see that the "full report" thinks so, too!

 Re: take the....Religious Knowledge Quiz!
Then again, maybe you should be Yogi with your score of 15, and I'll be boo-boo with my lowly 13.... (and it's ok to crank up a post-count as long as there's a mod involved. I read it. somewhere.)

 Re: take the....Religious Knowledge Quiz!
You answered 11 out of 15 questions correctly for a score of 73%.
I made one stupid mistake and apparently do not know nearly as much about muslims/hindus as I thought I did...
I need to read more as penance.

 Re: take the....Religious Knowledge Quiz!
I got 12/15... and I think it was my lack of knowledge of Supreme Court rulings that let me down (not that I'm surprised about that  )
