As to your main point, about how students can truly understand some events without knowing the basic religion behind it, I'm not sure what I think. I do know that the amount of knowledge about this country's history is pathetically small in order to graduate, and there's real no need for the average student to learn so deep into certain events. Does the average high school senior need to know the specifics about why the pilgrims left Europe, or only that they chose to leave because of religious reasons?
