Originally Posted By Ursula 47% I don't know jack about religion, and I'm surprised I got that high of a score.
Originally Posted By jonvn You probably got that social service one right. I was shaky on that. I should have said reconciliation, but no, I said social service....

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)?

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
