I think it's actually an OK test, in itself. You'll come out a lot less contemnable ifyou interpret the commandments the way they were in ancient times, as opposed to the way they are explained in the test. I bet no one has always kept the sabbath, though. The main problem is that it puts up front the "hell is the most important thing" idea that plagues modern Christianity. Does allying oneself with God simply out of fear even count as faith?

And of course the quiz is meaningless as a test of one's goodness if one does not actually believe in the christian god. :toothy-grin:
