The hindu, muslim - and, amusingly, jewish bits were taught as comparative myth, even in the catholic school which excluded christianity here (understandable - they know what side of their bread is buttered and by whom). My public schools made no distinction and included christianity in that as well. I guess I'm asking if this is not ordinary? I assumed that (especially in the case of public schools) it was similar pretty much everywhere?
(yes I know schools and districts differ - plenty of family in education - but the core curriculum would seem to include the sort of stuff you want)
I'm suggesting that this stuff is already taught, and that students are just ignoring their instructors (surprise surprise) or have incentive to ignore their instructors (religious parents/peers/pressure).
