Are you smarter than an Atheist?

Post #1

Post by Evointrinsic »

This is an interesting quiz I found through a topic made on another forum. The title of it is a bit provocative, but never mind that! I took the quiz myself which is a simple 32 question quiz about religions and non-religions posted originally on the Christian Science Monitor (although through another source before that).

Atheists and agnostics, Jews and Mormons are among the highest-scoring groups in a 32-question survey of religious knowledge by the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life. On average, Americans got 16 of the 32 questions correct. Atheists and agnostics got an average of 20.9 correct answers. Jews (20.5) and Mormons (20.3). Protestants got 16 correct answers on average, while Catholics got 14.7 questions right.

How will you do on the quiz?

I got 30 out of 32. How did you score?

The Prophets and Imams(a.s) never did deny The Existence of God!
But you atheists do deny??
you aren't more powerful than Prophet Moses(a.s) whom splited the red sea!
Nor than Prophet Jesus(a.s) whom gave life to the dead!
Nor Prophet Solomon(a.s) whom everythings on the world were under command him: People, Jinns, Animals, Birds, Satans, and...
I don't know where has gone your reason..

* The Prophets and Imams (AlayhemosSalaam) were more powerful than you atheists for deny The Existence of God. ;)


So I suppose by your reaction, you got close to ZERO of the questions right? :-k

Apparently the Jewish sabbath does not start on Saturday. Doh!
Religion remains the only mode of discourse that encourages grown men and women to pretend to know things they manifestly do not know.

I am an equal opertunity answerer. I missed one about a historical event I never heard of, one on Jewish, one on Mormonism, and one on the Bible. Although I used to know the Mormon and Bible ones' answers.
