I'm an agnostic/atheist, and I got 15/15 on the quiz. I did guess on the last question but I got it right.

You are agnostic/atheist? You got 100% on the quiz but are simultaneously unsure of the existence of God while disbelieving God's existence?

Atheists don't so much actively disbelieve as not believe in the absence of evidence to support the "theory" (I use the term very loosely) of religion.
I only got 9 of 10 right because I wrongly thought that only 40ish percent of Indonesians were Muslim.

I got 9 of 10 right also, but only because I forgot that the Jewish Sabbath started on Friday, and not Saturday.
And Gweed, the quiz doesn't ask you if you are faith-based, it asks what you know of it. Wow.

I did the same thing on that. I missed the indonesia one because for some reason I read it as India. Stoopid ADD
10 out of 10. And I could answer all the other questions in the article too.

If so, he's the only one on this forum.
Gay and agnostic are neither a "+" nor "-"
Liberal is definitely a "-" (in my book)
That leaves Recovering Southern Baptist as a definite "+".

Theism/atheism is about belief. Gnosticism/agnosticism is about knowledge. I don't believe in a god, but I know it's impossible to know whether there is a god or not, so I'm an agnostic atheist.
Dyslexic atheists don't believe in Dog.

in fact, by the very word atheism is about no belief. I would consider many self proclaimed Athiests actual Anti-Theists, or against religion, as they seem to place themselves directly opposed to religion as a whole.

actually, there is an upcoming play at TCC SEC entitled DOG sees GOD
But since DOG is GOD spelled backwards, wouldn't that make a dog Satan?
