Stephen Colbert was outraged last night over a Pew research poll that found that many Americans can’t answer basic questions about religions. “This Pew research quiz was biased,” Colbert said, “because it expects Christians to know about religions other than Christianity.”

“I mean just look at these actual questions! ‘What is Ramadan?’ I don’t know, some new flavor of ‘Cup O’ Noodles’? The point is, it’s insensitive to ask that question so close to 9/11.”
