'Jeopardy!' Fans Shocked After Contestants Are Left Baffled By Well-Known Christian Prayer

None of the contestants buzzed in to guess a key word in the Lord's Prayer.

Most people have heard of the game show, Jeopardy! where contestants answer trivia questions—from the mundane to the obscure—to win money.

On Tuesday's episode of the long running game show, all three contestants couldn't give the correct answer when asked to finish the Lord's Prayer—arguably the most universally used prayer of the Christian faith.


The clue was:

“Matthew 6:9 says, ‘Our Father Which Art In Heaven’, This ‘Be Thy Name'.”

The answer was the word "Hallowed."

This miss by all three contestants had audience members and people on social medial screaming at the top of their lungs.

People took to social media to express their shock.

Or in some cases, outrage.











Others were more understanding.

They recognized Christianity is not the only religion.



While the prayer is extremely well known among Christians, not everyone has heard it.

The number of people who identify as Christian has been dropping steadily.

The reactions from those on social media, while somewhat understandable, seem a bit extreme for what the question actually was.

Pope Leo's Brother Sparks Outrage Over Vile Posts About Nancy Pelosi And Parents Of Trans Kids

The brother of Robert Prevost, a Chicago-born Roman Catholic Augustine cleric who last week became the newly-elected Pope Leo XIV, is facing heated criticism after some of his older Facebook posts resurfaced and revealed that he'd shared a video calling Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi a "drunk c**nt" as well as a transphobic meme about transgender children.

For instance, in an April 23 post, Prevost claimed that former President Obama desired “the total destruction of our way of life” and aimed to turn the U.S. into a dictatorship, adding that it would be “a racist one on top of it.” He had previously pushed a conspiracy theory alleging that “OBAMA WAS A CIA ASSET, PUT IN PLACE TO DESTROY THE USA.”
