Would you support a secular Bible study course in public schools?

Anything of this sort should have as its prerequisite a course of study in comparative religions that surveys all the world's religions with equal weight. Like it or not, The United States of America is not an exclusively Christian nation any more. We can and must be considerate of the beliefs of others. Will you support children secularly studying the Koran in school as well as the Christian bible? side by side? with equal emphasis? You need to be clear that when you speak of "teaching religion" in public schools you are not, whether intentionally or not, excluding the beliefs of others.
