Building on the success of Stereotyping Religion: Critiquing Clichés, this follow up volume dismantles a further 10 widespread stereotypes and clichés about religion, focusing on clichés that a new generation of students are most familiar with.

Each chapter includes:

- A description of a particular cliché
- Discussion of where it appears in popular culture or popular media
- Discussion of where it appears in scholarly literature
- A historical contextualization of its use in the past
- An analysis of the social or rhetorical work the cliché accomplishes in the present

Clichés addressed include:

- "Religion and science naturally conflict"
- "All religions are against LGBTQ rights"
- "Eastern religions are more spiritual than Western religions"
- "Religion is personal and not subject to government regulation"
- "Religious pluralism gives everyone a voice"

Written in an easy and accessible style, Stereotyping Religion II: Critiquing Clichés is suitable for all readers looking to clear away unsophisticated assumptions in preparation for more critical studies.
