LOL! I have similar tests for men, usually involving the old testament.

The Hebrew Bible. Genesis to before Matthew (the first of 4 gospels).

The TNK, "Tanakh" or "Tanach" =
The Pentateuch/Torah ("instruction") + Nevi'im ("prophets")+ Ketuvim ("writings")

Must mean jacqueg is probably o.k. with very mythologically liberal "new testament only" Christians and "Oral Torah (Talmud = Mishnah + Gemara) only" Jews

However, if you are trying to point out that the new testament is also very economically, politically, and socially conservative (pro-interest-loans, pro-uncontrolled-worker-pay, pro-Kings, pro-being-politically-involved, pro-being-politically-private/secretive, anti-gaymen-doing, anti-women-power, etc.) then yes.

Along with the fact that it keeps the "magic is real (but only if heaven or demons)" motif. Well, actually the old testament seems to say that magic with words and rituals (regardless of any sentient supernatural creatures) is also possible.

Regardless, the old testament also has a bunch of "nice" stuff in it, that many nice people in this age would find nice.

And I have seen rainbows. (Shaped like rainbows, not lotus position silhouettes.)
And I still have a bundle of yarrow stalks.
