Perhaps also a history course tracing the development of modern religions, and examining their impact upon the cultures that produced them would be useful too. Public school courses tend to do a funny arm's-length dance with the subject of religion and its influence on the course of history, with the result that the study of history is done a disservice.

Just read any of Joseph Cambell's works. Start with the "Masks of God."
