Three contestants on Jeopardy! were stumped on a question surrounding the Lord's Prayer.
The Tuesday episode featured a $200 puzzle, meant to be the easiest puzzle to solve, which read: "Matthew 6:9 says, ‘Our Father, which art in heaven,’ This ‘be thy name.’” When no one could respond, host Mayim Bialik responded with the answer "hallowed."

"This may seem like a silly example of cultural decay," another user wrote. "But my 5-year-old knows the entire Lord's Prayer and loves to recite it at dinner time. Parents can change the world with how they raise their children."
This was a clue on Jeopardy last night & not one contestant got it right. This may seem like a silly example of cultural decay.
