    I have to admit though, one question I answered linguistically as opposed to religiously, so you can count one as iffy.

    Not really. Al Qaeda is a Sunni Muslim organization, specifically.

    Believe me, the differences between Sunni and Shia are about as deep as those differences between Catholics and Protestants.

    Would it be fair to say that the IRA was a Christian organization or a Catholic one (much to our shame)?

    Social service is not a sacrament. The seven Sacraments are:

    Three of initiation:
    Baptism
    Confirmation
    Eucharist

    Two of healing:
    Reconciliation (confession or penance)
    Anointing of the Sick (formerly Extreme Unction)

    Two of Vocation and Life
    Matrimony
    Holy Orders
