Don't Immanentize the Eschaton

I was hoping most of you could take a few minutes to take the Bible Quiz I posted on this site.

Next month, I will be starting a Bible Study at my church with my brother-in-law. As part of assessing the current knowledge of the congregation, we gave the quiz I have posted here to everyone in the assembly. They were not allowed to use their Bibles when answering the questions, and not one person in the congregation got 100% correct...even the minister missed one. The overall average was only 52%.

The quiz here is slightly modified for the format and is a bit easier (plus we gave people the option of honestly selecting "I don't know" for each question), but I still would like to compare the results between a group of people with random affiliations to the Bible and our Bible-centered church.
 
Dude, I got a 35%. Wow...after 13 years of private, Christian education, I thought I would have done better.

What is the purpose of this quiz? To me, the quiz was aimed specifically at knowledge of biblical history, as opposed to knowledge of the bible itself. I'd do better if it was strictly biblical knowledge as opposed to specific historical and geographical questions. Although I must admit, I F'd up the "youngest son of Jacob" question, I knew that, but my mind processed the "coat of many colors" and I clicked Joseph...
