Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. William Booth founded which Christian denomination in England in 1865?

Answer: The Salvation Army

The Salvation Army was founded in 1865, in London's East End, by William Booth. It was originally called the Christian Mission, but changed its name to the Salvation Army in 1878. The Salvation Army is famous for its work with the less fortunate in society.
2. Who is the Supreme Governor of the Church of England?

Answer: The reigning monarch of the UK

Henry VIII started the process of creating the Church of England following his failure to obtain an annulment of his marriage to Katherine of Aragon from The Pope. In 1534 Henry passed the Act of Succession and the Act of Supremacy which recognised that the King was "the only Supreme Head of the Church of England." Henry VIII assumed the title given to him in 1521 by the Pope as Defender of the Faith.

The Monarch to this day retains this title and is still Supreme Governor of the Church of England.
3. 'The Watchtower' is a publication produced by which religious denomination?

Answer: Jehovah's Witnesses

The Christian denomination of Jehovah's Witnesses was founded toward the end of the 19th century under the leadership of Charles Taze Russell. Jehovah's Witnesses do not celebrate Christmas or Easter because they believe that these festivals are based on pagan customs and religions and not on Bible teaching.
4. The Society of Friends are also commonly known as what?

Answer: The Quakers

The Society of Friends, otherwise known as Quakers, was founded in England in the 17th Century by George Fox.
The origins of abolitionism can be traced to the late 17th Century and the Quaker movement whose leaders, George Fox and Benjamin Lay, encouraged fellow Quakers to stop owning slaves. Quakers established the first recognised anti-slavery movement in Britain in 1787. In 1696, the Pennsylvanian Quakers officially declared their opposition to the importation of slave labour from Africa.

Mormons are also known as The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The movement was founded in the 19th Century in the USA by Joseph Smith. In its infancy the church met opposition from mainstream Christian church members.

In June 1844, whilst in prison, Joseph Smith and his brother Hyrum were shot and killed.
