Answer: Say a special prayer to become saved

Answer: Richard Allen

Allen's former slave owner, Stokeley, had been considered liberal in the sense that he allowed his slaves to worship freely, but they were harassed and not welcomed by the white congregants in the Methodist Church. The Free African Society emerged from his efforts to provide a place for Africans to worship as well as a mutual aid society.

This led to the establishment of the African Methodist Episcopal denomination.

Answer: They would call to order a kosher pizza delivery on Friday night

The weekly Sabbath, which begins with lighting candles at sundown on Friday night and continues until sundown on Saturday night, is a period that forbids work. There would be no delivery of kosher pizza, because the kosher restaurants would be closed, and there would be no Jewish delivery person on duty. Orthodox Jews typically unplug phones during the Sabbath, so no phone call could be placed for a delivery. Dishes would not be washed until after the Sabbath, when work can be done.

Answer: Sikhism

Sikhs promote their belief in brotherhood of mankind. They are considered warriors who have traditionally had to fight to defend their families from war and intolerance. After 9/11 in the US, many of their followers were targeted (along with American Muslims) based on the fear provoked by their wearing of turbans.

Answer: Ethiopia

Ethiopians were described by the Greek historian Herodotus as being "the most just of all people." The Ark of the Covenant is believed to be kept hidden and protected in Ethiopia, a decision of King Solomon's. This nation, also known as Abyssinia in its long and storied history, can in many ways be considered the birthplace of all western religion.

Answer: Voodoo

Voodoo was a way for Africans in the New World to hold on to their traditional beliefs while appearing to espouse Christianity, which was a requirement of slaves under punishment of death. The Orishas (spirits) were venerated as a way of connecting with ancestors, and gaining strength to overcome adversity.

Many people of the Caribbean and other parts of the Americas continue to practice Voodoo.
