14; I don't know what the US Supreme Court says about public schools and bibles.

8 out of 15 test questions were focused on specific prophets or advocates related to either old and new testament. I guess Christianity still remains the dominant religion in the US.

15/15... but I was a lucky guesser on the schoolteacher prayer one and the last one about the reformation.

Very Christian-heavy on the questions!

You answered 14 of 15 questions correctly (93%)

I didn't know about the awakening - which coincidentally I got right - and I had to guess about the class room teachings which I don't know at all. That is probably where I went wrong.

Yup. But, it is a U.S.A. religion quiz so it makes sense. I do believe my public school social studies class did briefly cover the first and second great awakening on which probably the toughest question on the quiz was based.

Yeah, I remembered that from AP U.S. History.

Also was interested in seeing that breakdown-by-religion at the end of the test to see how different groups did on it. How the Mormons knew the Mormon questions, the Catholics knew the Catholic questions, etc.

What I thought was interesting was the question about Catholic communion... a lot of Catholics didn't get that one "right" which reveals a discrepancy between the official doctrine and what actual Catholics believe... interesting!
