You've accepted "Mormons" but not "Mormon." I think you should also accept the singular answer to be consistent with the tenses of your other answers.

made a couple of changes. Mormon is now accepted. And I have added the number of people who declared no religion. @Annie: I used the table from Statistics Canada and wrote the name of the religion and/or church exactly as they had it. Not to say that they can't be wrong, but I just assumed that it would be the correct way to identify said churches or religions. Will see if I can add more acceptable answers though.

I understand that you're working from the source, but atheists definitely do not believe they belong to the "religion" of atheism. I wouldn't call it a religion, so that was a little misleading.

i've modified the game again a little, so that the answer "no religion/agnostic/atheist" appears as a bonus. it's still there, but does not completely count as a religion. i feel it's a good compromise.

I'd lighten up the accepted answers a little. "Pentecostal" for instance should suffice for "Pentecostal Church".

i thought it was. i went back to check and i had spelt it "pentacostal", that's why it was not working. should be working now!

You might consider adding more choices for aboriginal spirituality... I tried everything from "First Nations" to "Native American" to "American Indian" to "Cree" without any results. Also, I tried "Seventh Day Adventist" and didn't get Adventist, either.

You should accept LDS for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, as that is the proper term.

I'm surprised Methodists were even on the list; I thought they joined the United Church along with Moravians (and maybe one or two more). Also surprised there aren't 20,000 scientologists. But grateful.

"Seventh-Day Adventist" or even "SDA" should work for Adventist. Also, this is somewhat obscure but important: Since 2005, the official, legal name of Jehovah's Witnesses in Canada is the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Canada. Jehovah's Witnesses should remain the displayed answer, but I would also accept "Watch Tower" and "Watchtower."

Shouldn't at least one of "Episcopalian", "Episcopal", "Church of England" or "C of E" be acceptable for "Anglican? Just checking!

you made me have to spell prebysterian... But this is a good quiz so I won't complain EXCEPT could you accept athiest as well as agnostic, it would be easier. But this is a divine quiz, thanks for putting it up!

Great game, surprised you don't have, open and closed Bretheren, Born again churches (Called Money churches here in New Zealand), Elims, Christadelphian, the Spiritualist church, Shintoism, Jedi and or a category for cults like Hermes far eastern shining and Scientology).

Strictly speaking it should be Roman Catholic, since the word catholic means universal and can cover other denominations - whereas the Roman branch has the Pope as its head.

Nice quiz. A little strange that there are Greek Orthodox and Ukrainian Orthodox but no Russian Orthodox- maybe Canada has more Ukrainians than Russians?

@Bulletchewer6 - Weirdly, Ukrainians make up almost 4% of the Canadian population (Russians, less than 2%).

I'm surprised Bahai wasn't covered by Statistics Canada. According to their website they have 30,000 followers in Canada. (http://www.ca.bahai.org/canada)

I think the non-religious, et al. should be included in the quiz proper. While we do not consider ourselves a religion, we are an important demographic (not to mention the second largest belief-system demographic in Canada: just about as large as the next two combined).

Also, can't you accept 'animist/animism', 'aboriginal', 'native american', 'indigenous' or 'inuit' for 'aboriginal spirituality'? Outside of Canada, the names 'First Nations' and 'Aboriginal' are not widely used.

Results are somewhat glitched. It says I didn't get Islam or Aboriginal and that I got Mennonite; none of which is true.

My answers are also glitched. I think it shows the same number of right answers, but some I got are shown as missed and vice-versa. Also, I can't believe more people got Sikhism than Hinduism and Islam! Not complaining, I'm Sikh!
