14/20 here.

I wonder if that's because I grew up in an extremely right-wing conservative household, where Robertson and Falwell were often on TV. I guess I recognized some of the over-the-top \"700 Club\" and \"Falwell-Prophecy\" rhetoric.

I used to hear the 700 club occasionally when I was young. It didn't seem QUITE so crazy back then as it does now.

The really bizarre thing is that I AGREE with Robertson and Falwell on many many issues. I am religiously conservative. But we disagree on one very very MAJOR issue. I think that religion is safest when the wall of separation between church and state is tall and strong.

I see this as the major difference between the west and the Islamic Extremist. They want to strongly unite church and state, and therefor they turn BOTH church and state into monstrosities.

We accomplish NOTHING if we become like them. The church does not NEED the support of the state. Indeed, it is strongest without it.

I only got 12 out of 20, I guess because all those religious whacko's look/sound the same to me.

They look and sound the same because in fundamental ways they *are* the same. So great that we have a president who God talks to.
