[quote=Anonymous]Hindu here and I'd fully support a comparative religions semester. It can only make one more open minded - after all, we live in a very diverse society. And celebrations should incorporate everyone. When my kids were in Preschool (Montessori), we had families talk about Christmas traditions in Norway as well as in Mexico. We had Jewish families talk about Hanukkah and Passover; the kids even made latkas from scratch one year. We made Chinese lanterns for Lunar New Year, and read books about Eid (and parents brought in food). But even in the late 1980s in mcps, my mom made me a snack to talk and share about Diwali. People liked it, and we didn't have enough of the snack! Rather than restricting, we should be all inclusive. [/quote]
