Zusammenfassung:Should the state provide religious education in public schools; if yes, what form should it take? I argue that alertness to epistemic injustices that religious persons can suffer can help us answer those questions and can provide grounds for fostering religious literacy.

That leaves us with the remaining option to have a proper form of religious education which I suggest religious literacy can provide.
