Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson, bin Laden Quiz

Anyone here seen this quiz? Makes you think a bit, eh?
If there's enough response, then I'll post the link/answers.

Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson and Usama Bin Ladin have a lot in common. Take the quiz and see if you can identify statements by each of these "leaders."

(Each quote is condensed from a longer statement. Terms specific to Islam or Christianity have been replaced with generic words. Complete, unedited quotes are included with the answers. )

P.S. The answer is NOT always a) or always b). A true quiz.

1. In today's wars, there are no morals, and it is clear that mankind has descended to the lowest degrees of decadence and oppression.
a) Jerry Falwell or Pat Robertson
b) Usama Bin Ladin

2. America is polluting the whole world.
a) Jerry Falwell or Pat Robertson
b) Usama Bin Ladin

3. The government is committed to supporting God's religion, the country remains a strong bulwark for religion, and the people are among the most protective of God's religion, and the keenest to fulfill His laws.
a) Jerry Falwell or Pat Robertson
b) Usama Bin Ladin

4. One-world opinion is taking the side of the Palestinians, not the side of Israel.
a) Jerry Falwell or Pat Robertson

a) Jerry Falwell or Pat Robertson

a) Jerry Falwell or Pat Robertson

LOL - nice try guys! I especially like RSVX's answer, but I honestly didn't make up any of these

I'm going away for the weekend. Going to a Harley motorcycle field party. (Probably the last of the season.) So I'll check when I get back and most likely then post the answers with a link to the detailed quotes.

Have a great weekend!

It's Osama, not Usama. And it's like the quiz where you end up picking Hitler over FDR and Winston Churchill. I wish I still had that one laying around somewhere.

Actually, it CAN correctly be spelled Usama or Osama or a few other variations. You're taking a name from a language that has a completely different alphabet, and "sounding it out" using the English/Roman Alphabet.

For Example, my name can be correctly spelled Vera, or Wira, or Wera, or Vira... you get the picture. Or you can just actually translate my name instead of transliterate, and you end up with "Faith.

My actual name is really truly "Bipa" in the original Cyrillic alphabet. It is pronounced a little differently than the English version "Vera". But the slight trill on the R just doesn't exist in English.

So let's not get side-tracked by language and alphabet details which have nothing to do with the topic at hand.

This time, you're wrong. Period.

I take my information from the original intel briefing released to US troops when most of you had no idea who he actually was. In every document I have ever seen it was spelled with an O. Pronounce that everyway your bi-lingual canadian mind wants to. When you get off your box, settle the correct way to pronounce, creek, tomato, water, etc...

P.S. your name can only be CORRECTLY spelled the way it reads on your birth certificate, regardless of different translations.

Example:
Kelly, Kelli, Kelley, Kellie, Kylie, Kielle, etc...

So do you sign your name with a different spelling based upon where you are?

not just the birth certificate though. you can change the way it's spelled if you get your name changed. also you can have aliases for yourself.

for instance, i could change my name to:

Arighehtkdirhtnsirhtikhgiashjishhgkshkshska Sudibudicudidjefiisherksheirhasirhahsdrhgha Smeirhgrase

i'm sure if i became popular enough, they would just give me an acronym...ASS

the correct way to pronounce english is the way the brits pronounce it. so if you don't sound like an englishman, then your english is just as incorrect as those silly maple leaf hockey players.
