15/15, and the questions I had to stop and think about were the ones about Christianity.

5. Ramadah was Hindu? Apologises to easily oftened all muslims.

8. Some guy called Job did something. I've never heard of him.

13. Martin Luther apparently did some good writting changing protestant life of something.
Protestant reformation? I though he helped black people get fairer shit?

15. What's the first great awakening? XD

I remember Luther threw an ink bottle at the Devil. After he got a new bottle he wrote it in his blog.

13/15

I don't know when the Jews start sabbath. I've no idea what a First Great Awakening is either.

Huh. I got 15/15. I guess I'm a good guesser.
People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.

But those letters are not silent.

They're just waiting their turn.

I seem to be getting the impression that atheists know best about religion...... I'm confused and a little aroused.

It's when we Merkins first started to reject the Enlightenment and revert to barbarism.
What I've found with a few discussions I've had lately is this self-satisfaction that people express with their proffessed open mindedness. In realty it ammounts to wilful ignorance and intellectual cowardice as they are choosing to not form any sort of opinion on a particular topic. Basically "I don't know and I'm not going to look at any evidence because I'm quite happy on this fence."
-Mr P

The Net is best considered analogous to communication with disincarnate intelligences. As any neophyte would tell you. Do not invoke that which you have no facility to banish.

Nope, Jews score better than atheists. Check the stats on the results page.

Those wacky Jews. That conflicts with weekend partying.
