    18 with a few lucky guesses in there

    Not sure why there is a don't know option though when obviously that can't be the right answer.. may as well just guess
    I assume the people who undertook the test initially were asked to choose it to keep the results honest.

    But yeah, I got 27. I'd have thought about 20 of those would have been common knowledge to most people, not the pinnacle that any group could achieve on average. What do they teach over there? :holmes:

    29 / 32.

    I got one of the ones about US policy wrong, I didn't know who Maimonedes was, and I've never even heard of the First Great Awakening

    (And I'm a practising Christian)

    I got 30/32 - got a couple of the US law questions wrong.

    I am Jewish and an Atheist which probably explains why I did so well according to the stats.

    Well it was a quiz put together by a group that studies the balance between religion and state in America so it's not exactly surprising... :erm:

    I don't know anything about protestants, mormons, the questions about America or who Joseph Smith and Maimonides were.

    Simple. I was born Jewish but I don't believe in God. Being Jewish is more than just a religous belief.

    I'm an atheist and I got 29/32.
    You'd have to be fairly stupid to miss some of them though.

    I disagree with the use of the word Science when it is preceded by the word christian.
