	No respect for Deuterocanonicals, I guess?

	I feel kinda ashamed that I only got 5. And they were the 5 most guessed.

	@sunny1192: It's called 60-second blitz. Would it make sense to have it longer than 60 seconds? Yah, pretty much the only one who could get them all is God Himself, but I doubt anyone here expected to get them all. Lighten up and have fun.

	2 Peter 3:8 says that "with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day." By that measure of time, this one-minute quiz should have a time limit of 253 days. THAT should be enough time.

	"1 Corinthians" takes longer to type than you might think.

	Phew, glad I spelled "Ecclesiastes" right on the first try or that could have been disastrous.

	One minute for so many long-titled books is tough. It kinda makes it fun though, trying to think of the books with the shortest titles to make good use of the time.

	Bonnie this is a 60 SEC BLITZ. You are not supposed to get them all just as many as possible. It is quite easy to understand.

	There are other bible book quizzes on Sporcle, one for New Testament books and one for Old. You get ten minutes on each of those. This is a different sort of thing altogether, frustrating for those of us who revel in finishing.

	I could do better on Hebrew.

	It should sort of say what version of the bible it is, because I definitely tried guessing the seven books that aren't included in the King James version.

I would have done better if I hadn't tried a bunch of books that were in the New American Bible....

	Due to the sheer length of most of the names, is it even physically possible to do this in a minute unless you type a gazillion words a minute?

	Shouldn't this be a religion quiz?

	Minor prophets for the win!

	starfish:	Apr 29th, 2010 at 05:52 GMT	6 points
	So because it's a 60-second blitz, can you give us credit for all the Johns, Timothys, etc., in one shot? Like typing John will get you John, 1 John , 2 John, 3 John...

	i spent half my time trying to spell thessalonians

	@sphenderson2008: Ouch. I promise to lighten up if you do. ^_~ I like this quiz, was just wondering if anyone could do it in 60 seconds. And since I'm a bit of a Sporcle newb, I thought my question was a legitimate one.

	@pbrown, all of the Blitz quizzes fall under the Just for Fun category regardless of content.

	Why oh why did I think it'd be a good idea to type 1 Thessalonians? And why oh why after realizing how long it took did I follow through with 2 Thessalonians?

	I would probably do better if I memorized the shortest book names... but I won't.

	I was wondering why "Corinthians" wasn't working... :(

	@sunny1192...the "lighten up" thing was more a play on your screen name than an actual suggestion. Anyway, welcome to the wonderful world of Sporcle. If you look around, most of these 60-second blitz quizzes also come in a much more reasonably timed alternative. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me, if that's even possible.

	My constant attempts to beat this have turned this 60 second blitz into an hour long endeavor. And I still haven't managed to do any better than 26!

	Wow, whoever got 51-55 respect to you! Though I doubt you went for 1 and 2 thessalonians. And whoever has gone for them, respect to you too! It takes me longer than a minute to try and remember how to spell it once, let alone twice!

	Silly quiz, it's basically just a typing test. I can crank out all the books in order without hesitation, but it's pretty much impossible to type fast enough to actually finish this quiz in 60 seconds

	@sphenderson2008: Thanks for the info (and the welcome, and for making me feel like less of an idiot). Will probably stay away from the 60-second blitzes from now on, or at least until my typing reaching super-human speeds! @corndog: Your comment seriously made me feel like crap. If that was your intent, consider yourself a success. Thanks.
