Education in even elementary and certainly in secondary schools should give the pupils at least a little notion of comparative religion. This could at least be confined to biographies of founders of the world faiths together with those of celebrated saints and mystics from different lands and cultures. At college and university levels, carefully chosen tenets from their teachings could be added, and some discussion of the theologies or philosophies involved. In all this instruction the religions dealt with are to be described fairly and explained without prejudice, not criticized or judged.
