Well, I think a lot of the questions and answers are loaded, like the one about Navritalova: nowhere does it seem to come into play that some people just don't give a damn about tennis. And the question about feminism: if they'd had an answer along the lines of "if by feminist, you mean I think women should be on an even keel, then yes." (this was the way my teachers explained feminism to me.) The answers that the quiz provides seems to have implied that it is somehow different. And the job recruitment one, I'd probably, as a man who liked "The Dice Man," would probably let the die take care of the issue. And the shopping list question seems to imply that the person taking the test never goes shopping. And let's not even get to the implication that I would ever willingly help bring another mewling bag of flesh into the world....
At any rate, my score was 84. If there were less loaded answers and questions, I'd probably score lower. I suppose a lot of this is because I tend to have an equally low opinion of men and women (thank you, abusive schoolteachers and Schopenhauer), although the possibility of having sex might swing things in favor of women.

61 for me
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post

I scored 77.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
