Do You Know Your Baltimore Catechism?

[T-Bone _]

I played around for a while, figuring out which Q's (and A's) took away how much.

It's pretty interesting to see how wrong you can get.

BTW: I did get a 100% on my first try.

I know my stuff...but I am more of a charismatic catholic than traditional.[/quote]
I think you can be both.

Maybe they just mean "orthodox Catholic" and not traditionalist Catholic.

Does it help that I'm too young for the Baltimore Catechism?

It's still an A in college![/quote]

She meant that the Baltimore Catechism is old, and she didn't have it growing up.

You are a 100% traditional Catholic!

Congratulations! You are more knowlegeable than most modern theologians! You have achieved mastery over the most important doctrines of the Catholic Faith! You should share your incredible understanding with others!

You'd probably be surprised at how many "Catholics" couldn't answer these questions.

Some of the false choices were funny.

(Considering that the website misspells "knowlegeable" I'm really leaning toward false.)

100%... Some of the wording confused me, but still got through.

Yeah, I thought it was pretty easy. But some of the wrong answers were hilarious. Like one of the choices for what the Holy Spirit gives the Church the ability to do was to play Bingo.
