Let's have some fun with trivia quizes :)

Squidoo has created a template for online quizes that I've been having some fun with. So test out if you really practice the second object of the TS by studying religion, by taking my quiz about religion in general. Or whether you know enough about the largest world religion: Christianity. Perhaps a bit closer to home: I also made Blavatsky trivia and Jiddu Krishnamurti trivia quizes.

Please tell me if any of the questions are wrong. The folks at the Krishnamurti ning helped me correct one question already.

Oh - and share how you did of course :)

More are coming up. I'll be doing all the main world religions soon enough I think.

--

here are three more: Yoga triva quiz and Buddhism trivia quiz and Hinduism trivia quiz.

--

And more new ones: Jewish trivia quiz and a page where I'll keep track of all trivia quizes as I make them: religion and spirituality trivia quizzes.

Comment by Katinka Hesselink on December 1, 2009 at 5:22am: The astrology quiz wasn't by me. I've added a few quizzes by other people to my list of cool quizzes.

The 'monotheist' terminology stuff is - from a scientific perspective - rather controversial. Is Christianity monotheist? What about the trinity then? Is Islam monotheist? What about the angels (article of faith)? Etc. Is Hinduism polytheist? What about their belief that One divinity underlies it all?

The limitation of multiple choice lists like this is that they are not suited to discuss controversy, so I'm sticking to solid fact.

Comment by Katinka Hesselink on November 25, 2009 at 4:13am: All the quizzes ARE now mentioned above. :)

I'm thinking about making a page with the questions and answers so people can print them out. That would not be a place to discuss them though.

Comment by Katinka Hesselink on November 24, 2009 at 7:35am: BTW: today I created a Hinduism trivia quiz :) I wonder whether you'll do as well :)

Comment by Katinka Hesselink on November 24, 2009 at 7:33am: You didn't know that 'Yoga practice originally involved intense ascetic practices' -well it's very true. You know, those pictures of ascetics standing on their heads for ages, or meditating by a tree so long the tree starts growing around them. All that's yoga too - what we do in the west isn't only a less spiritual version, it's also WAY less ascetic.

Comment by Katinka Hesselink on November 23, 2009 at 2:27pm: I finally succeeded in correcting the mistake. Thanks Govert for alerting me to it.

I've set up two more quizes: Yoga trivia and Buddhism trivia.

Comment by Katinka Hesselink on November 16, 2009 at 5:19am: I see it hasn't been changed :( I think there must be a bug or something in the system.

Comment by Katinka Hesselink on November 16, 2009 at 5:16am: Hi Govert - didn't I change that last week? I added Vernon as a fourth. I'll go check again :)

Comment by Govert Schuller on November 16, 2009 at 5:01am: Hi, Katinka,

I'll probably comment somewhere down the line on your evaluation of K. For now just have to mention that question 2 in the quiz has Mary Lutyens twice as possible answer, while you probably meant one of them to be Emily Lutyens.
