Religious Literacy: What Every American Needs to Know--And Doesn't

Prothero argues that understanding different faiths can strengthen democracy, but I'm curious what personal experiences or research led him to focus on this topic.

The book touches on so many faiths and histories that it was a lot to absorb. I'm wondering if others found a particular section or religion more challenging or enlightening.

The selection of topics shapes the narrative — I wonder what criteria or personal interests influenced these choices and how that impacts the overall message.
