Whether the parent wants to teach a child about multiple religions or none at all, it is the parent's right, and the parent's responsibility. No one else should be able to make such a decison for the parent. Not you, not the school system.
But this makes no sense. If the parents don't believe the holocaust happened are you going to be sympathetic to the parents that take their kids out when this is being taught?

If I were a parent, I would want to raise my child in the faith I follow, because I believe it is the one true faith. I do not want my child to simulate a religious practice of Islam. When the child gets to the age where he/she is mature enough to study and form his/her own opinions of other religions, I won't like it, but it's not my choice to make at that point. However, I will not allow the public school system and teachers, who may indeed have their own biases and agendas, to instruct my child in the religious practices of a religion that I consider a false religion. It is my right and responsibility as a parent.
But I don't see the harm here. If you raised your child in your faith, are you scared that a few hours of education will erase the first 16 years or so?
Would you allow your child to be taught about other religions without simulations?

A school system has no right poking its nose into the religious upbringing of its students.
This isn't what they are doing, far from it. Especially if a school is teaching more than one religion.

I'm curious about something. I am honestly not trying to be rude when I ask this question. Are you a supporter of socialism?
In theory socialism has some good points. i.e. healthcare
But it fails in many ways outside of theory, so no.
What does this have to do with the discussion?
