I have no problem with studying theology. Honestly, if there was a class in school that took an objective stance on all religions, and taught kids about all the mythologies and such, they'd find that Christianity isn't all that different from other older religions. However, I realize that when Christians say they want the bible back in schools, it's with the belief that it will be taught as Holy Scripture, instead of there being lessons on "How many mythological figures have Jesus-like qualities, but are older than Christianity?"
Poe's Law: "Without a winking smiley or other blatant display of humor, it is impossible to create a parody of Fundamentalism that SOMEONE won't mistake for the real thing."

10 Christ-like figures that predate Jesus. Link shortened to Chris ate Jesus for some reason...

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.
