After a question about the Lord’s Prayer, three contestants were left stumped on Tuesday (June 13) Danger!<\/em><\/a>brought back to light a long-standing debate: Does the show ask too many Bible questions?<\/p>\n While even the non-religious found Tuesday’s question (“Our Father who art in heaven, (let this be thy name”)) easy, Danger!<\/em> has seen a number of questions about Christianity and the Bible in recent years, which viewers have begun to notice more and more.<\/p>\n \u201cIt was just a Bible question Danger<\/em> which I knew the answer to, and none of the contestants did, and I feel the need to warn everyone that this may be a sign of the impending apocalypse,\u201d one viewer tweeted on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n There was only one Bible question on Jeopardy that I knew the answer to, and none of the contestants did, and I feel the need to warn everyone that this may be a sign of the impending apocalypse.<\/p>\n \u2014 Jolene (@obscurityknocks) June 13, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n But are there too many Bible questions in general? Some fans think so.<\/p>\n “(Danger!<\/em>) writers seem to know everything about the Christian Bible. Have you noticed that almost every show these days has a #Jeopardy question or the entire category about the Christian Bible? What’s up with that?” one viewer tweeted last month.<\/p>\n “So tired of your questions about the Christian religion,” wrote another. \u201cToo much Christian Bible. And the ‘Sufferings of Jesus’ category was Sunday school stuff, not part of a general education (your flawed defense of all this).”<\/p>\n I do not know. Ask @danger<\/a>. Their writers seem to know everything about the Christian Bible. Have you noticed that almost every show these days has something? #Danger<\/a> question or whole category about christian bible? What’s up with that?<\/p>\n \u2014 ATLGal (@AnnainAtlanta) May 20, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n @Danger<\/a> so tired of your questions about christian religion. Too much Christian Bible. And the “Sufferings of Jesus” category was Sunday school stuff, not part of a general education (your flawed defense of all this).<\/p>\n \u2014 Judith (@sqkywheel) May 13, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n The topic even became a discussion on the topic Danger!<\/em> reddit forum<\/a>with one user saying, “Christianity\/biblical categories have too much space.”<\/p>\n “You know two things that go on Jeopardy: The Bible and Shakespeare,” joked another viewer.<\/p>\n “Although not my favorites either, the Bible and religion are legitimate categories. I agree, though, they seem to be getting more hints than their fair share.\u201d added another<\/a>.<\/p>\n Others had explanations for why Danger!<\/em> includes so much Bible trivia, with one fan writing: “A teacher once told me that to be truly well read (by US standards) you have to be familiar with Greek mythology, Shakespeare and the Bible . Between the three, you can find almost every archetype that Western stories are built on.\u201d<\/p>\n They added: \u201cI think so Danger<\/em> it comes from a place of ‘Bible as literature’ instead of a place of Christianity.”<\/p>\n Others agreed, with one person stating: \u201cI’m not religious, but I think it’s undeniable that the Bible has had an absolutely enormous impact on Western civilization, architecture, literature, art and politics. Yes, it’s featured more, but it’s also had more influence.”<\/p>\n \u201cPeople should think of biblical categories more as literary than religious. It’s no different than a contestant studying famous French novels,\u201d said another.<\/p>\n What do you think? Do what Danger!<\/em> Do you have too many questions about the Bible?
