A question such as "What was the majority opinion of <fill in the blank religious section> between the years of <fill in the years> on <insert passage of scripture from some religious book>?" and then having multiple choice would be okay as there would only be one answer.....whether you agreed with that particular religious section or not.
A question such as "What does this passage of scripture mean?" and having multiple choices would NOT be a fair question due to multiple correct interpretations. |
thats the point with these religious exams... they want to coax you into
their answers... in my school paper there's always ads for: "COLLEGE EXAM COMPETITION! WIN UP TO $10,000!" and then in the fine print, you see: "exam based on <insert religious scripture here>"
i cant respect a religion that uses tricks and gimmicks to spread itself... preying on povershed starving students to get your "religion" out...
