There are plenty of Pagan religion classes being taught right now. There is even a man, Isaac Bonewits, who long ago received a Bachelors degree in Authentic Thaumaturgy (Real Magic) from the University of California Berkeley. He went on to found ADF (A Druid Fellowship).

In the Public Education system (K-12), 'No Religion' should be taught, maybe a general history would be acceptable, in this case all world religions, including pagan ones, should be given the same time and attention.
At the College level, their usually pretty good at offering diverse classes that cover any religion your interested in.

No. I think in future there is going to be one major religion for all, like in old times when every one had to obey the Romans. The good news is we will always have Cyberministry meaning online studies.

Which of the pagan religions do you want to teach? "Pagan" means "non-Christian, non-Jewish". That accounts for most of the world's population and a large number of religions.

Religion is not taught in public schools in the U.S.
However, you are correct, mythology is taught...but not the "mythology" of Wicca....ancient Greek mythology is taught.

Probably Wicca. but since there are so many Pagan faiths it would be hard to cover them all.

Religion shouldn't be in schools at all, we are there to be educated not told stories about people with giant egos.
