Because kids are taught nothing in school. If you can handle the basics of memorizing things long enough to pass a test and how to logically deduce answers on a standardized test you have it made.
That really has nothing to do with religion to me, but more to the fact that kids are not taught application or consequences. There is no reason that everyone shoudl get a trophy just for showing up or make the honor roll because they got all A's in a class that is grade levels below their age.
I place that blame solely on the people who decided that there is such a thing as good enough. Good enough stops working once you get out of school, so why is it taught in school?
