Jason, you're a liar!! :lol

None wrong, indeed.

I'll fess up. I got two wrong, but I don't know which two. It'd been nice if they showed that, but I didn't see it.

This quiz really has a lot of media attention!

what, you think that i dont know about other relgions? i do look at them from time to time.
 
Cool. I got 93%, missed the last question about the great awakening. Tests are always fun when you get to pass!:)
 
I got tripped up with whether Hinduism or Islam was bigger in Pakistan. Oh well. That seems more like a sociological then theological. Us Pantheists are doing just as good as the A groups.

It appears that almost all of us on this forum are obsessed with religion and we all scored in the top 1% - we must live in a bubble because nearly half of those who took the survey got each question wrong.

Well, not all of us :oops, but I was in the top 3%. :)

The eastern religions get mixed up for me. There's a lot of general ignorance out there. This really applies to those living in the U.S.: I did a thing where you give yourself 5 minutes to list as many of the 50 states as you can on a piece of paper. I think the average U.S. citizen could only list 31 states! :o I think I got something like 45 - just had some mental blocks.

As I said... ignorance in general, but your point is good. We're here because this is important to us.

I did that just now and I got 45 within 5 minutes and 2 more shortly after the 5 minutes were up. Something interesting happened some years back that's somewhat related to this. I had recently learned that Massechusetts isn't a state, but a commonwealth. (I'm not sure what the difference is, but "Commonwealth" is part of the official name.) There was a NATO naval air base in Keflavik back then, and I had gotten to know a few of the Americans there. I was visiting them once and I decided to ask them "how many states are there?" I was all ready for him to say "fifty", to which I was going to answer "No, there are only 49, Massechusetts is a commonwealth". (I have since learned that there are more commonwealths in the US.) Imagine my surprise when a man serving in the US Navy answered that there were 52 states.
 
A commonwealth is a state whose constitution forbids it to have a deficit budget. There are fifty states, six of which are commonwealths.
 
Took the same quiz that these people did (all 30 something questions). Only thing I got wrong was something about lasers or some such nonsense... What do lasers have to do with religion?

I didn't notice anything about lasers. What was the question?

Dunno, at youth group we all took the quiz to see where we fit in... everyone scored 100% on the questions that matter.

The third question on my quiz was about what a laser is and I didn't read it right. I saw amplification and was like YUP but I neglected to see the word "sound".
