What's Your Religious Literacy IQ? Quick - can you:

- Name the holy book of Islam?
- Name the first five books of the Hebrew Bible or the Christian Old Testament?
- List the Ten Commandments?
- List the Four Noble Truths of Buddhism?
"We have a major civics education problem today," says religion scholar Stephen Prothero. He makes the provocative case that to remedy this, we should return to teaching religion in the public schools. Alongside "reading, writing, and arithmetic", religion ought to become the fourth "R" of American education, he says.
Many believe that America's descent into religious illiteracy was the doing of activist judges and secularists hell-bent on banishing religion from the public square. Prothero reveals that this is a profound misunderstanding. "In one of the great ironies of American religious history," says Prothero, "it was the nation's most fervent people of faith who steered us down the road to religious illiteracy. Just how that happened is one of the stories this audio has to tell."
Religious Literacy reveals what every American needs to know in order to confront the domestic and foreign challenges facing this country today.

"This book is a must-read not only for educators, clergy and government officials, but for all adults in a culture where, as Prothero puts it, 'faith without understanding is the standard' and 'religious ignorance is bliss'." (Publishers Weekly)
