What should be in a religion curriculum?

I think the following:



- Overview of what the current world religions believe (the big sects among them).

- Overview of some past religious beliefs (like Norse mythology) as well as some formely widely believed but now very small religions (like Zorastrianism).

- An overview of famous doubters of religion throughout history (like Lucretius, Omar Khayyam and Thomas Paine).

- An overview of how different religions describe their origins.

- An overview of how secular scholarship describes those religions' origins.

- Various psychological and anthropological theories about why humans are religious.



Would you add something more or remove something from my list?
