True or False

True or False: The Bible should be required reading for students, either in high school or in college.
My take: True. If you don’t agree with something, you should understand what it is that you don’t believe. The opposite is also true. I’ve read the Ramayana, parts of the Koran, etc, simply to learn. Reading something doesn’t make you agree–it makes your think. In any case, I strongly believe that the Bible can also be a valuable literary lesson as well.
Now it’s your turn. True or False?

True, in a way. I think a comparative religion course should be required featuring the major religions and the holy books/teachings of each one.
