Barbara Brown Taylor, an Episcopal priest, teaches an introduction to world religions at Piedmont College and has discovered that Christian students, including those who have been active in church, know almost nothing about their own religion. She writes in Christian Century:
“The only place the course backfires is in the unit on Christianity. Students who have spent every Sunday of their lives in church may be able to name the books of the Bible in order, but they rarely have any idea how those books were assembled. They know they belong to Victory Baptist Church, but they do not know that this makes them Protestants, or that the Christian tree has two other major branches more ancient than their own. Very few have heard of the Nicene Creed. Most are surprised to learn that baptism is supposed to be a one-time thing.”
