I remember there was a girl in my senior high school class, who went to my Protestant church growing up, who did not know what a "Protestant" was. She pronounced it "pro-teestant" when she was introduced to the word.

We need some level of religious education in public schools. The fact that educators even refuse to touch the topic is an embarrassment.

I guess I don't really understand why this has relevancy in K-12 schools.

Because religion is a fundamental component of society and world history that is important to know about?

I mean, you can't really understand European history if you don't understand the difference between a Catholic and a Protestant
