Yes, but not in a science class. There definitely should be a class called
"scripture" or "religion" or "philosophy" which teaches about religions,
just as there is a class called "science" that teaches about sciences.

Of course I may be biased, my scripture teacher (in Australia) used "A
Clockwork Orange" as the basis of one term's teachings, and Watergate for
another term. He also authored a rather good book on Velikovsky titled
"Some trust in Chariots". I've got a lot to thank Barry Theiring for. If
I had been educated in this country I'd never have known the man.
