Test Your Religious Knowledge

Test your religious knowledge
Scored 15 out of 15--however, I'd argue that at least three of the questions are less about religion and more about history/civics/demographics. And these questions don't come anywhere near being a torture test of religious knowledge. Now, if one were to ask the exact nature of the Albigensian heresy and how it was similar to and different from the Manicheean heresy--or the nature or even the names of the two great divisions in the Buddhist religion or the nature and meaning of a Bodhisatva--there you're getting into true religious knowledge. As it stands, anyone who has been paying attention to news and general culture should do fairly well on this test.
Here are the demographics on the test. And I must admit to being shocked at the relatively low scores. And I'm ashamed to say that my demographic scored only middling, while other practitioners of my faith were dead last. But perhaps that indicates less about knowledge and more about intention and focus.
