Man, this is hard--- fun, but tough! Now I'd like to see a quiz where you match a picture of some religious in a traditional habit, & have to name the order. Kind of like the movie posters quiz, but for RC's.

Great quiz. For the amount of vocation camps I've been to, though, I can't believe I missed so many

I typed in "Society of Jesus" but it didn't accept it. You might want to fix that.

Heh...I was looking for Basilians, too. They ran the Catholic high school in the town where I grew up.

Neither Benedictine nor Jesuit works; that is weak.

Interestingly, I've never seen the abbreviation OFM for Franciscans. I went to a school run by Franciscan brothers who all used the title OSF for Order of St. Francis.

OSC is also used by the Poor Clares. Double answer perhaps?

Doesn't accept Dominican, Cistercian, Benedictine, or Jesuit. Not impressed.
