For a country with such a firm stake in faith and religion, a recent survey shows that a shocking amount of Americans lack even basic religious knowledge.
Okay, I couldn’t help it; I laughed when I saw that atheists and agnostics scored the best overall. Perhaps the people who don’t believe and the people who aren’t sure have studied the most?
If you would like to take the quiz, you can find it here. I took it and scored okay, given that I haven’t had anything to do with any religion for the last four years.
Really, though, I’m not surprised at the results. Religious education is still education, and we all know that’s going down the toilet.
