People of religion will also protest teaching other religions’ texts in schools I know. My own people in the Christian persuasion love to demonize any view point that does not come from the Bible itself. I imagine some groups in Islam feel the same way about Christian Bible’s teachings that Christians feel about teachings of the Quran. I personally believe that my religion is the right one, but I think it is very foolish to say that no other people of another faith can be good or live under good moral or ethical principles. We need to value each other’s moral wisdom because I have always found that when another view point suggests the same idea that my faith suggests even without requiring faith in a deity that makes it all the more valuable to me. I can see that people do have ways to figure out what is right and wrong on their own and we can take this knowledge from many places of both faith and places of without faith to strengthen and validate the ideas that we value for living a good life full of moral and ethical behavior.
