Nothing to do with us. David, Not aware of any such tests - at what point in the process was the question asked?

When you go to register it asks you some questions to prove you’re human. I found it funny that one of them required a wrong answer!

It's not something we control. Just to check was that pre or post your application being approved by the Mod team? If pre then somehow what appear to be spam robots pass it, And in some ways, a wrong answer is more likely to be found by a human than a robot. That said I think that's a daft question to ask for this purpose

It’s not a complaint, I just found it funny that I had to answer it wrong to get through!

And yes it was during registration, before approval.

Yes it is to do with us. Before registration the forum asks three questions from a pool of nine. However, the answers we have all seem to be correct.

Oh right, it's the Washington one. I think we'll change that to something else because we don't want to discourage people who don't know there is Washington State and Washington DC.

It's excellent that David raised this as it makes it easier to control spam

Greetings. I'm glad that you acknowledge that those of us with a more sceptical attitude to much of the Bible may also be Christians.
