Abstract

Abstract Religious literacy fosters an ecosystem that promotes the public understanding of religion in all sectors of society. Yes, it is the responsibility of public schools to offer constitutionally friendly courses about religion and to apply religious literacy principles across the curriculum. But it is also the civic duty of every profession to promote religious literacy as a civic competency. Professionals play a unique role in cultivating religious literacy in business, journalism, social media, healthcare, and law. Contributors in this special issue call upon these professionals to take shared responsibility for cultivating a religiously literate citizenry.
