Such total biased BS. Some of those questions are about religion and specific beliefs, and have no sturdy evidence behind them at all, and your answer could be wrong just because you aren't the same religion as the person that made the test. 1/5

actually this isnt about religion and beleives vega....the questions they ask are proven that the planets will come together as one again for another explosion. The next one is asking you if evolution is real....and yes it is. Your talking bad about this like your some christian or something.

Statistically speaking 30-35 percent of the population are at or below the level of intelligence where they would be considered to be retarded. That means one in three humans is retarded. Think about that for a minute.

Ahhhhhh, now I understand why the world is going down in a ball of flame.

VegaObscura: One might think of some of these questions as biased against religious people, but there are a lot of questions, the one with Sun-around-Earth, Earth-around-Sun included, which now simply sound ridiculous when taking the religious stance on them. While proof of the Big Bang isn't as conclusive yet as for evolution, for which it is definitive, it's getting there.
