Ponce Pilatus
The tendency, already discernible in the canonical Gospels, to lay stress on the efforts of Pilate to acquit Christ, and thus pass as lenient a judgment as possible upon his crime, goes further in the apocryphal Gospels and led in later years to the claim that he actually became a Christian. The Abyssinian Church reckons him as a saint, and assigns 25 June to him and to Claudia Procula, his wife. http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/12083c.htm" rel="nofollow - (source)
And you are sole Jesus' disciple, which is mentioned in Apostles' Creed
"Credo in Deum Patrem omnipotentem, Creatorem caeli et terrae, et in Iesum Christum, Filium Eius unicum, Dominum nostrum, qui conceptus est de Spiritu Sancto, natus ex Maria Virgine, passus sub Pontio Pilato ... "

Because these Internet/Facebook quizzes are like horoscopes, one size fits all, so it doesn't matter what the questions are or what answers you give. All it needs is a set of questions that will give a number of possible combination of answers to cover the resulting conclusions. These conclusions will have enough vague and generic positive traits that subjective validation will make them appear to be an apt assessment of whoever takes the quiz.
Or the one sentence explanation: They're all a load of bollocks.

You can believe that quiz algorithm is based on Jung's psychological concept and animals are archetypes.

Is this a joke? Because I would like to know who thought this was something to joke about, and why they thought it wasappropriate to post it on the forum?!
This is serious stuff. It's understandable if you can't really identify with any of the apostles; they were the chosen few; but if you honestly can't (or refuse to) say that you are a disciple for God, then something needs to change.
Don't joke about the way people live their lives. This stuff is important. It matters.

it is my honest opinion, by the way, that Paul greatly misunderstood Jesus, and many of the things he said have nothing whatever to do with what Jesus said. I sincerely doubt "mulier taceat in ecclesia" (or the Hebrew equivalent of it) could ever have come out of Jesus' mouth. Paul despised women, Jesus did not.

Augustine certainly helped with it, but the foundation was laid by Paul. without him Augustine would have had no ground to stand on

Go back to your catechism.
Paul was, indeed, an Apostle. He was not, however , one of the twelve disciples. He never met Jesus during the Ministry. Instead, the risen Lord appeared to him and put him on the path of spreading the word.
