Well we must be charitable and just remember how hard it is to make a light quiz that can be graded.

I personally thought that many hymnal questions was a tip off that the quiz was done by a music director. Otherwise they would have been referred to by their Lutheran names, you know "The Red Hymnal" "The Green Hymnal"... I was actually quite disappointed to not even see their proper names offered as answers.

I was disappointed with:

You are 84% Lutheran! This is most certainly true.


Not a perfect score. What does this mean? You have room for growth in understanding Lutheran terminology and culture. Good thing Salvation is by Grace and not by merit. We can add nothing to what God has done for us in Christ Jesus. But it never hurts to learn a little more about the church on earth. Thanks for taking the quiz!

DEM DARN HYMNAL QUESTIONS!!!!!

Nicely done! Martin would be proud of you! You may or may not have room for growth in understanding Lutheran terminology and culture. Good thing Salvation is by Grace and not by merit.

You are 99% Lutheran! This is most certainly true.

This really surprised me because I had to take some wild guesses.



I also want to know if anyone felt compelled to visit the sponsor's site? :eek: :p

Yowsa!! Only 65% Lutheran. Well I still have a lot to learn - THIS IS MOST CERTAINLY TRUE :blush:
But not bad for someone baptised Roman Catholic, who later became a member of a Southern Baptist Church and then joined the LCMS. What a wild jouney.

:scratch: The quiz asked nothing about beliefs, it was just about memorized facts. I guess that's how the ELCA can call themselves Lutheran, huh? ;) Oh well, it was fun, and I always enjoy a quiz.

You'll notice that it says "Lutheran terminology and culture" and not "Lutheran doctrine and practice." At least this way all who claim the "Lutheran" moniker are included regardless of what they believe or practice.

I was 71%. Perhaps this is because I've never lived in America and had much contact with the LCMS, and especially the ELCA and WELS. I couldn't even tell you what the other acronyms stood for...

UNFAIR!!!!!!!! THIS IS BIASED TOWARDS AMERICANS!!! :p

You mean Biased in favor of Americans. And also do you live on the Continent or has Canada been declared part of a new continent of which I have not heard?

Canada is part of the Americas and therefore by Continental citizenship you are American like it or not. ;)
