Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. The author of "Bible Codes Revealed", Sherry Shriner, said God set her on the path to discovering what secret information?

Answer: The U.S. government has a treaty with space aliens

According to Sherry, President Eisenhower's foreign policy included extra terrestrials, and every President who followed him has carried on a cover-up to conceal the government pact with the aliens. In addition, the aliens are about to turn hostile. Good thing we have Sherry to advise us.

2. When Evander Holyfield fought Lennox Lewis to a draw (and lost later, in a rematch), why was it so surprising?

Answer: Holyfield said God told him he'd win

Holyfield said God had told him he'd win in the third round. When the third round came and went with Lewis still standing, Holyfield said his energy just went away. Earlier, Lewis had mocked Holyfield for having many children out of wedlock. Maybe God noticed, too.

3. Who said "God would tell me, George, go and fight those terrorists in Afghanistan. And I did. And then God would tell me, George, go and end the tyranny in Iraq. And I did."

Answer: George Bush

George Bush was much noted for his claimed controversial interactions with God and the English Language. He often spoke about his personal relationship with Jesus, and described God as speaking directly to him.

4. What British former footballer and authority on human/alien hybrids announced in 1991 on the Terry Wogan Show that he was the Godhead (incarnation of God)?

Answer: David Icke

David Icke is most known today for his books which describe the reptilian aliens which control the human race, but in 1991 he was widely known as a football commentator. When he made the announcement of his divine nature, he was widely mocked and later claimed he had been misinterpreted.

5. What did evangelist Jimmy Swaggart say was "flat none of your business", according to what God had told him?

Answer: Being caught with a prostitute for the second time

Swaggart told his congregation God had said it was flat none of their business. His business, however, depended on their donations and you'd think he'd give an explanation for his reasons for being pulled over while driving in the wrong lane with a hooker in his car. His previous arrest had been in a hotel room, with a prostitute who Swaggart insisted he'd never had sex with.

Answer: David Koresh

David Koresh was accused of child molestation and firearms trafficking prior to the horribly botched raid by the ATF. He reportedly considered himself the new Messiah, directly descended from King David. His birth name was Vernon Wayne Howell, David Koresh was the name he adopted to show his lineage and role as a savior. (Koresh is a version of Cyrus, the Persian king who helped Jews return to their homeland).

7. Oral Roberts began a fundraiser to earn eight million dollars and save the City of Faith Medical and Research Center. What did he say God would do if he failed?

Answer: Kill him

Roberts said God would summon him up to Heaven if he didn't earn the money by March 1987. Luckily, Roberts beat the deadline and raised more than nine million dollars. God let Roberts live, but the City of Faith wasn't so lucky. It's an office building now.

8. What did God's frequent conversation partner Jerry Falwell say was the cause of the September 11th terrorist attacks?

Answer: Legal abortions, gays and lesbians

In an interview on September 13th, Falwell blamed the attacks on, among other things, abortions, the gay community, the ACLU, and generally everyone who wouldn't want the Ten Commandments tattooed by legal order on everyone's forehead.

9. Pat Robertson, who was the other party involved in Jerry Falwell's September 13th interview, has numerous strange instructions from God. Which of the following has Pat Robertson NOT said?

Answer: Islam is a faith of peace

Robertson frequently blames natural disasters (and man-made ones) on God's punishment for sins. He has said that liberals would demand firefighters let churches burn to maintain a separation of church and state, that Muslims are by nature violent heretics, and that feminism will lead to witchcraft, lesbianism, and murder.

This former faith healer hosts the 700 Club, a faith based program enjoyed by millions.

10. Who said "As long as God lets me, I will walk the wire?"

Answer: Karl Wallenda

Karl died in a fall from his high-wire. He was true to his word, but perhaps didn't take into account that God expects people to know the limitations He has set for them.

11. David Shayler, former British MI5 agent and conspiracy theorist, has made an unusual claim. What is it?

Answer: He is the Messiah

Shayler made the announcement that he was anointed Messiah on 7th July, 2007. As powers of his divinity, Shayler claimed to be able to influence weather, football scores, and terrorist attacks. Among other unusual claims Shayler makes, are that governments attack their own people and claim terrorism, and that some survivors of such attacks are actually government agents.

12. John Kasay of the Carolina Panthers had an intervention from God in 1998. What was it?

Answer: God made him miss his field goal

Conditions were perfect, Kasay said, so it must have been God's will that he missed. After hearing so many athletes thank God for their victories, it's nice to see one give Him credit for a loss.

13. In the Bible, why does God kill Onan?

Answer: He lets his seed spill on the ground

Onan's brother died and he took in the widow of his brother's marriage. During intercourse with her, though, he interrupts the act and "lets his seed spill on the ground". So God kills him. Let that be a lesson to you.

Answer: Skip out on a restaurant bill

After failing to pick up on a girl at a restaurant, Mailer got drunk and heard God's voice commanding him to skip out without paying. The former atheist insisted the voice was divine rather than infernal.

Answer: John Brown

John Brown left a note which said "I am now convinced that the sins of this guilty land will never be cleansed, except with blood." When the Civil War began, Union soldiers marched singing the song "John Brown's Body"... the tune of which inspired the "Battle-Hymn of the Republic".
