Most students get no introduction to any of the worlds religions outside their own particular denomination.
I know I'm responding to a message made over 2 years ago, but I want to point out something.
This is not true at all. Every student by grade 7 is suppose to have read at least a short version of the Illiad and the Odyssey. I'd say this is a pretty big introduction to the religion of the Olympian Gods.

Every student when and where?
First of all, when you read something I have written that looked like a blanket statement, you have to realize that the world revolves around me and that what I experience is what everyone else experiences. "Every student" was used because that's what I went through in my school district.
