This quiz is a tool I have been using with some people, especially ex-Catholics in several Protestant bible study classes I attend. I am posting it here for comments as to whether it would be useful for Catholics. Feel free to copy any past or all of it if you think it would be useful to you. .
If you take the quiz yourself, let me know how you do. Any comments would be appreciated
