5. Who the Gospels Were Written By

Despite the vast majority of Americans being Christian (76%), less than half could attribute who the gospels of their faith were recorded by: the Saints Matthew, Luke, John, and Mark. One would think that if you truly believe in a deity and a Heaven and Hell after death, you would be devout in your faith and feel truly beholden to your God. Instead, most Americans don’t really seem to care.

Perhaps most telling is the fact that atheists/agnostics correctly answered more religious questions from that survey (the Pew Research Center’s Forum on Religion & Public Life) than Catholics did.
