Question Test Your Religious Literacy!
I know you love taking online tests so here's a quick one to see if you know your Exodus from your Tao Te Ching. There's only 15 questions and it's not exactly a broad sweep of faiths but anyway....

Quiz: Test Your Religious Literacy - Newsweek Beliefs - MSNBC.com

(modesty prevents me from saying what score I got. So there's hope for everyone!!!).

Re: Test Your Religious Literacy!
I scored 80% as well. I missed a couple that I definitely should have gotten right.

Re: Test Your Religious Literacy!
I got 93% one wrong which actually calculates out correct but I have no idear how they got there...Every time I answered a question right I lost points from 200% down....and then when I got one wrong I was at 80% and then every point right gained till I got back to 93%....totallly wierd.

I got suckered on my wrong question...it was a trick question I think...a couple that I was iffy on I was lucky enough to pick the right one...

Quite generic...awfully slow...like they were making me take enough time for them to complete the inventory on the cpu and install some spyware...
