If not them, why not them?

Insofar as world history is part of a curriculum you would teach these. Remember, this is elementary and basic education, and you don't have to worry that too much time will be spent teaching about some obscure mystery from the jungles of Papua New Guinea. If that happens, we have a different problem.

Although I think that with your query you underestimate the character of Americans.

Of course you would. But that's not what Rightwing Conspiratr1 meant. He wants the Christ's divinity taught as truth instead of as faith.

Put all the world's religious figures in context, and teach them in history and philosophy classes. But not in science classes - they just don't belong there.
