Fun quiz, though I'm not a huge fan of the cluing for catch-22, seems a bit over-simplified.

Not that I want to play the role of political correctness policeman but that 72 virgins clue seems a little incendiary.

I read somewhere that the "72 virgins" thing was actually a mistranslation, and that the original text actually specified 72 grapes (and the archaic term for "grapes" is similar to the modern Arabic word for "virgins" or something along those lines). Not sure whether this is true but it makes for an interesting piece of trivia.

Every time I see something about Luther's 95 theses I remember the student who answered on a test, "Martin Luther nailed 95 theocrats to the church door because they made him eat a Diet of Worms."

Sorry but you can't put suicide bombers as a clue, you've basically called all suicide bombers Muslim, which isn't true at all.

Not actually a catch 22, it's a dilemma. A catch 22 is more of a cycle or paradox that you can't break free from, e.g. you want to get a job for experience but you are turned down because you need experience to get job.

Yes, from a broadway musical (and movie) "The Music Man." The big number (bigger even than "Marian, Madam Librarian) was "76 trombones," with a repeated line, "76 trombones led the big parade..."
