Religious Knowledge

My uncle posted on Facebook an article published by the LA Times that stated that Christians know less about the Bible than Athests, Agnostics, Mormons and Jews.  It was an interesting article, and I agree that I probably don't know as much about the Bible and religions as I think I should.  What about you?  Can you answer these questions?

(Of course I allow Googling because the whole point of my questions is to encourage you to find out the answers!)
