Civics test for you!

Postby Steve » April 13th, 2008, 6:17 pm

I got a 70 on this. Hey, it was a passing grade in school!!!

In today's USA Weekend magazine there was an article on how American
colleges are failing students in knowing American history, civics,
economics. Here's the link for the test...see how you and your kids do
compared to many colleges/universities.

For the truth that lies at the heart of theology is not something there to be discovered, but something, or rather someone, to whom we must surrender. The mystery of faith is not ultimately something that invites our questioning, but something that questions us.
