It turns out religious people may not actually know all that much about religion -- even their own. A recent national survey found that atheists and agnostics knew more than the devout. On the next Sound of Ideas, we offer an encore presentation of a program in which we examine the survey and discuss whether you need to know the details of your religion to be truly faithful. Does the entrance to heaven involve a multiple choice quiz? Join us at Monday at 9 on 90.3.
