Whenever I ask a question, I get an immediate response with which verse of the bible it came from.

no, it is the Holy Spirit that helps us to answer questions.

Not likely, although some people keep asking the same questions over and over again, that I have learned some relevant scriptures. But I can also search the Bible pretty quick for the topic at hand.

Some do. But for the most part it's surprising how little most professed Christians know about the book they claim to revere.
In one poll, a substantial percentage could not name "Matthew, Mark, Luke and John" as the four Gospels. I am always citing things in the Bible to Christians, and often they don't know what I'm talking about and don't believe that what I cited is in the Bible.

I can only dream of having the Bible memorized.

some do. mostly, though, do not. if we have an answer it usually falls under referencing the bible or things we covered in Sunday school and church. lets say for guys, do you have all of a sporting magazine memorized word for word, no.but, you can spit off facts from it and so on. for girls, same thing but with Cosmo.

I only wish I had such a memory. There have been those rare few who could quote huge passages at recall, though.
I would say that after having read it for so many years, I do at least know what it says, although I would have to find out where specifically.

no we don't that's just really religious,
i am a christian and i am really contemporary
i'm not really that religious i'm just spiritual.
i dont' like just "quoting scripture", it makes me feel like i dont' know what i'm talking about when someone's like
"and, what does that scripture mean?" and the person who quoted it is like uhhh...idk..i hate that.

no, just the useful(for them) parts.... even the out of context verses can be useful for them.
