Take the Quiz and find out:
U.S. Religious Knowledge Quiz (Pew Research)
Interesting how people scored. Those Jews and Atheists sure know their religions!
It helped that I was in ministry for so long and taught courses on World Religions.

Hemant posted an article on this a few days ago, and I took the test then. 100%! Not very difficult, only one question about Buddhism took me a moment to think about. I assume you also got 100%?
Did pretty well, and also paused a few times to think … which, as we know, is the whole point, right?
Interesting that Jewish affiliation has highest average score
And let’s hear it for old people : )
Thanks, Chris — interesting study!
Sure and yes. I also found it interesting that on other religions Evangelicals didn’t do much better than
“Nothing in Particular.” Makes we wonder about these “NIPs.”
13 out of 15. Not bad for one of those “not religious” folks.
Nice job, Dave. Imagine if there was more knowledge, of religion, science, philosophy. . .
Imagine if the teachings across those areas were consistent…
Yes. And yet, could they be? “Knowledge” in religious faith seems very different than knowledge in other areas.
