I've held off taking quizzes lately. This one was really interesting. I could answer most of the questions without thinking about them at all. For example: You find $5 at work and then find out the register is $5 short. Do you give them the $5 or keep it. You give it back. People get in trouble when the register is short. It's a no brainer.
This one gave me problems: You are the president (again), and an controversial issue is on the table. The majority of people support the issue, but your religion is against it. What do you do? 1 - Support the issue. I represent the people. 2 - Try to show people why they are wrong to support the issue.
You know what gave me problems? Not the whole "your religion" thing, but the thought that a majority automatically makes it right. If the majority of the people say that it's okay to arrest people without reading them the rights, that doesn't mean I should support the issue. And if my religion is again persecuting people and I try to persuade people to see it my way, is that automatically wrong?
I think that the question was supposed to test whether you blindly follow your religious beliefs or not. But is that a "Christian" thing? I don't think so. Of course, it could have been testing whether or not you actually have any strong beliefs or if you just go with the flow. Like I said, I had a hard time with it.
