We interview Linda K. Wertheimer, author of\\xa0Faith Ed: Teaching about Religion in an Age of Intolerance. Most people understand that the Constitution prohibits religious indoctrination in the public schools, and that the Supreme Court has repeatedly supported that position. What many may not realize is that there\'s nothing wrong with teaching students\\xa0about\\xa0the world\'s religions, but it\'s a cultural and political minefield for teachers and administrators.

Plus: Check out Shelley Segal, an Australian singer-songwriter currently touring North America. Her lyrics often reflect atheist, skeptical or scientific themes. For more visit\\xa0shelleysegal.com.
