I actually don't have a problem with them studying religions through role playing, as long as they study all major religions, and the role playing is not sanitized. Perhaps during the pilgrimage to Mecca, the girls should be told they may not walk alone or with other males except their "husbands"; that they must do the cooking and looking after the children; that they must not contradict their "husbands"; that they must not consider changing their "beliefs" to follow other religious teachings; that they must encourage their men to fight (jihad) if Muslim land is taken over by non-Muslims; that depending on which Muslim society they are in, they must not work or engage in certain activities; in family gatherings, the women are to gather in one room and the men in another with the children; and so on. Better yet, the differences between various Muslim sects could be highlighted. The Saudi women could travel only under the restrictions imposed in Saudi Arabia, and should travel four women to each man. To leave out these things might leave the kids at school with an incomplete perspective, and we wouldn't want that, now would we?
