This is a quiz on current events put out by the Pew Research Group. It is fun and interesting to read the results. I missed two questions. One I misread and one I just plain got wrong. How did you do?

Here's Your Score: You correctly answered 9 out of the 12 possible questions, which means you did better on the quiz than 82% of the general public.  Misunderstood one, guessed one, and the other one depends on your math.....(It could go either way I just happened to pick the wrong one).....LOL

Got 'em all right.

So on which question did the math trip you up, me; the one where they asked your age?    :icon_twisted:
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

I was surprised how easy this questions was...I got them all correct also....though I went against my instincts on one of them...and got lucky.

I got all 12 of them correct as well.  I thought they were easy.

I thought they were pretty easy, too. I was surprised at the demographic info, who got them wrong and what the spread between men and women and democrats and republicans was.
