	The Church of Norway is Lutheran, so why doesn't it give us Norway when we type in Lutheran?

	You should make the names consistent - change it to Roman Catholicism and Islam.

	This test would be interesting if you had to answer one at a time. What is the fun in the game when you type in catholic, lutheran and orthodox and your practically done?

	When was the last time you "czech"'d these stats? Majority of the Czech Republic is agnostic.

	I find it odd that you have to type out "Roman Catholic" instead of just "Catholic" while typing "Orthodox" gets you all the various types of Orthodox.

	I don't know from what source you got your statistics, but within the last year, the number of Catholics in the UK has surpassed Anglicans

	In the Netherlands you got more Dutch Protestants then Roman Catholics....

	Where is atheism. :P

	rasputin:	Sep 30th, 2009 at 16:08 GMT	1 point
	1. atheism is not a religion. i chose to put the most popular religion for each country, even the ones where more are nonbelievers. 2. I got all my statistics from the CIA world factbook, so even though I thought there would be more Dutch Reformed than Catholics in the Neth. I had to put that. 3. How are the names not consistent? catholic, muslim, lutheran, orthodox all match up. i find that better than catholicism, islam, lutheranism, and orthodoxy.

	Church of Norway is not a religion. It is evangelical lutheran, just like the other nordic churches.

	pablitoneal:	Sep 30th, 2009 at 18:28 GMT	2 points
	just reading the title, it sounded like a good idea, but it's not a good quiz when i can get 45 answers correct from 4 guesses - roman catholic, orthodox, lutheran, muslim. it's like the basketball quizzes where every answer is wilt chamberlain. not your fault though rasputin.

	segacs:	Sep 30th, 2009 at 20:01 GMT	2 points
	Took me most of the time to figure out that it wanted "Roman Catholic" as opposed to just "Catholic". I kept thinking I was spelling "Catholic" wrong. After that, I was out of time to think of the rest. If you're going to accept "Orthodox" for the various types of Orthodox relgions, you should accept "Catholic" for Roman Catholic, IMHO.

	I think this quiz should probably be changed to a 1-at-a-time quiz and given slightly more time. Makes it slightly more difficult but removes the element of "What?! I'm out of time!?"

	magister:	Sep 30th, 2009 at 20:55 GMT	2 points
	Thank you for all the comments about Church of Norway. I happily typed in the answers and then noticed the blank space. It happened like this: "And England is Anglican, and that leaves...Norway? What the !@#$ is Norway? I'm !@#$ing Norwegian! What the !@#$ is Norway? They're !@#$ing Lutherans! What the !@#$?!? What the !@#$ is the Church of Norway?"

	micktravis:	Sep 30th, 2009 at 21:56 GMT	1 point
	I'm also Norwegian, and found it a little hilarious that Norway was the only one I didn't get. The Church of Norway is definitely Lutheran, and Denmark and Iceland also have Lutheran churches as their state religion. The same goes for some Roman Catholic and Orthodox churches in other European countries.

	I figured the Vatican would have a larger Jewish influence...

	patichunx:	Oct 1st, 2009 at 00:08 GMT	1 point
	i think quiz should be one at a time but lutheran should definitely trigger norway

	quizzicle:	Oct 1st, 2009 at 04:29 GMT	1 point
	I type Roman Ratholic and half of them show up.. lol. Also, if I remember correctly in France, Czech Republic and Estonia the majority are are Atheist/Agnostic

	@quizzicle - Atheism and Agnosticism aren't religions.

	Please make us do them in order!!!!!!!!!!!!

	kunlunmountains:	Dec 16th, 2009 at 11:44 GMT	1 point
	orthodox.

	asylumlost:	Dec 21st, 2009 at 17:09 GMT	4 points
	I also think it should be done one at a time. It will make the quiz more challenging and informative. I do agree with not including atheism and agnosticism. the quiz is about religions (i would assume that to be organized religions)of europe not what the kajority belief system is.

	It's too easy as it is, just four guesses gets you the whole thing.

	I don't think Muslim is a religion. Islam is.
