Should people learn about other religions?

[Oldandeasilyconfused]

If religions and their history should be taught, let it be that critical thought be a requirement before entering aforementioned classes.

I do too,and with your a caveat,. Perhaps a lot to ask of the average public school teacher and simply beyond the capacity of most teachers in many religious schools.

I think a good approach would to give kids, a broad outline of the history and tenets of the major world religions, as well as some of the lesser, such as Mormons, Bah'ai, Jains,Sikhs and Hasidic Jews.

Perhaps it might be worth touching an evangelical creationists as a curiosity.
