I’ll be interested to see whether any of these turn out to be conch-y; several of them _might_ be.  
And to nitpick #8, the “seven deadly sins” do not appear as such in the Bible.

OK, it’s pretty clear that I’m going to bomb this one. I think I’m the only non-Genesis, I’m the only Acts, and Peter’s not faring nearly as well as I expected.

Yeah, I can’t _believe_ I missed the opportunity to choose “Lust” in a Doper poll. There’s no excuse for that.

As for the apostle, I was afraid people would limit themselves to the 12 disciples so I bailed on Paul. Should have gone with Peter though.
