“Americans are a deeply religious people, but they are also deeply ignorant about religion.” Which evidence best supports this thesis statement?

The majority of America's 73.7 million children under age 18 live in families with two parents (69 percent), according to new statistics released today from the U.S. Census Bureau

The 5 world religions include Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, Judaism, and Christianity.

Most Muslims are either of two denominations: Sunni (80-90%, roughly 1.5 billion people) or Shia (10–20%, roughly 170-340 million people).

It is less surprising but more dangerous, given America's role in the world, that the public knows even less about Islam, Buddhism, Confucianism and Hinduism than it does about Christianity and Judaism.
