Mormons and Jews tend to actually practice their religions and in order to do that they have to actually "study" their religious text and history. I know that christians, for the most part, don't do this. I know some christians that are very well versed in their religion (and others) but they're the exception. I think this has to do with having a "personal" relationship with Jesus. Since it's a one on one sort of thing, they don't have to study or read. They need only say grace or go to church on the major holiday's. It's more of a box to check on a census than it is true belief. Here's a great parody of the American Christian that you've likely seen
and here's a fantastic painting by my cousin, titled "Nascar Jesus"
