No, seriously, this article makes my want to put my head through my desk.  Only 57% of Protestants can name the four Gospels?  That's all?  55% of Catholics understand transubstantiation?  Hell, I can even spell it correctly.  It hurts, it really does.  Unless the Christian Science Monitor's sample group was a group of kindergartners, this should

Head-desk indeed. Kind of made me think of when I was younger, and I started to learn how science tied into things in general. Like how rainbows are made of up water droplets and rays of light, rather than some sort of celestial magic. I actually tried to deny it for a while, but then realized that that was just stupid of me. And about the Ark... That's a doozy of a story to prove. Wasn't there a ship stuck up in the mountains somewhere though?

Also...I inwardly laugh at people who think the Earth is only a few thousand years old. Or who believe that dinosaur bones are fake. I say that if they are fake, then your unicorns are fake. Which means somebody lied when they wrote the Bible. Because it mentions unicorns (which, in some translations, is listed as "ox/oxen" instead, even though the two are nothing alike).
But then, that's more of hubris theory than anything. Probably a good indicator of why I shouldn't touch religion with a 10-foot pole...
