What Do You Know About The
Separation of State and Church?  (in the USA)

I got 19 of 21 right, but to be fair, I guessed on about 1/2 of the true/false ones, and I guessed correctly.

I missed the quote, incorrectly attributing it to the wrong guy-- I thought the correct answer was too cliche.

And I was incorrect about the two families' court cases, not being familiar with either case's details.

Still, 3 wrong of 21 is not bad for a layman.

[Opsa]

It says I got only 13 right, but when I checked the answers, it seems a couple of mine went through incorrectly. I think I'm a 15.

That was fun!

[Bluenose]

Well I scored 15 which not bad for a non-USian, if I do say so myself.

17 out of 21 and on two of the false ones the correct one was seriously considered.
In the court cases it was pure guessing who brought the charge (and I got one wrong).
One more and I'd be in the top group.
No surprise there since I would also (unlike most actual citizens) pass the citizen test with flying colours

12, lots of minutia I was completely unaware.

12, lots of minutia I was completely unaware.

I'd have done much, much worse myself 5 years ago-- I attribute my knowledge to 5 years of arguing with people who claim the US was/is "a christian nation" and/or the founding fathers were "all christians" and such nonsense.

Refuting these claims has made me do research I would not have done otherwise, which has led me to an understanding of my own country's founding that I would not now be aware of.

Aside from the obvious (why is there no mention of either 'god" or "jesus" anywhere in the US constitution ought to have settled it once and for all, but apparently not... ) the details proved fascinating to me.

As result, these days, when I have opportunity to recite the US pledge, I use the original one, minus two little misplaced words...
