<![CDATA[In recent years, Yogyakarta has been suffered by a series of religious intolerances, an ubiqutious phenomena caused by decrease of religious literacy.

By investigating three main components of religious literacy respectively, religious knowledge, religious multi-interpretation, and religious literacy, I found that the students have different level in each; they occupy the level of ‘quite high’ to ‘high’ for the first variable, ‘low’ to ‘quite high’ for the second and third variable. From the result, I finally argued that the religious literacy does not go in line with the religious knowledge highly accumulated by the students.]]>
