	Some nice "wrong" answers - especially the tribes of Israel; made me think.

	I swear my Bible has a Book of Sporcle.

	I agree with emjay - nice choice in wrong answers. I particularly enjoyed the proximity between Daniel and Craig

	The Book of Daniel Craig is awesome.

	I could've sworn the book of Sporcle was in there. I remember it taking place in Kyrgyzstan.

	The 'Song of Songs' is actually the Song of Solomon. Not fair, guys.

	The idea of "The Book of Jesus" made me laugh quite unexpectedly. If you wanna make this a bit harder for some, I suggest adding "Revelations" as a wrong answer.

	To make the game a little more challenging, it would be better to have included triplets like "Judges", "1 Judges" and "2 Judges". Currently there is a "Daniel" and a "2 Daniel", so it's automatic that the correct answer is "Daniel" (it's impossible to have a 2 without a 1). By the way, the "1" books are always more guessed (around 5%) than the corresponding "2" ones, which is strange. If you clicked "1 Samuel" and it was accepted, you can be sure that "2 Samuel" exists (otherwise, the book would be only "Samuel"). Some of the differences may be explained by running out of time, but even so they are significant.

	While I know "The Bible" in Sporcle means only the King James version, there are are well over a billion Catholics in the world who consider the deuterocanonical books such as Tobit, Judith, Baruch and 1 & 2 Maccabees to be canonical books as well. No big deal...but pointing out a fact!

	I would read the book of LTH...

	@blackhawks2010 It's actually the Song Of Songs Of Solomon, usually known either as Song of Songs or Song of Solomon (I prefer the former myself). To quote Wikipedia: 'the name of the book ("The Song of Songs of Solomon") comes from a superscription: "The song of songs, which is Solomon's" (which also constitutes the opening verse of the book)'. Also, we need a Book of Gerald. Gerald doesn't get enough regard.

	I'm just glad that none of decoy answers are books recognized by Catholics but not Protestants. That would have been annoying.

	May want to clarify that the Apocrypha is not included.

	youngwills:	Jan 5th, 2013 at 20:03 GMT		11 points
	I was worried you might have Philippines instead of Philippians, that would have caught me

	Argh- I was doing really well until 1 of the tribes of Israel finally tripped me up!

	TheFlyingBarney:	Jan 5th, 2013 at 20:58 GMT		0 points
	Would someone care to enlighten me, why is there John AND 1 John/2 John?

	popestcyril:	Jan 5th, 2013 at 21:16 GMT		16 points
	TheFlyingBarney: John is a gospel, the others are Epistles.

	The book of Harry. Well, he seems to show up in most other book quizzes...

	Song of songs? Song of Solomon

	HelloPossum:	Jan 5th, 2013 at 22:11 GMT		3 points
	59, not bad for a godless heathen!

	gsa219:	Jan 5th, 2013 at 23:07 GMT		14 points
	How ironic, a quiz on the Bible which disregards Sporcle 2:3: 'And thou shalt reference Kyrgyzstan in every quiz even if completely irrelevant to the subject'

	selene314:	Jan 6th, 2013 at 01:20 GMT		6 points
	My copy (NSRV) uses "Song of Solomon" as that book's title. So does the KJV. To clarify this confusion and the Catholic/Protestant book lists, you should specify which Bible you're using.

	Everyone asking to "please fix Song of Songs" need to be educated. Though perhaps it could use the full name of "Song of Songs of Solomon". Just a thought. Otherwise, great quiz. Would have been cool to have a 'type in the answer' type that recognized (as bonus answers) other books of the Bible as recognized by other religions, too. ;)

	No Book of Kyrgyzstan?

	jaypunkrawk:	Jan 6th, 2013 at 17:53 GMT		3 points
	Haha. Loved that Sporcle made the list. Finished with 2:19. Not very hard if you've spent much time in the bible. Fun all the same. I need to read the Gospel according to Fergus.
