My son Josh and I were discussing this question tonight and we came up with a few reasons for teaching and learning RE in schools.
In today's cosmopolitan world, it is a definite necessity and advantage for children to have basic knowledge and understanding of the many cultures and religions of the world. It makes for more enlightened and well rounded individuals who see the world as their home not just a single country. Religious education can promote tolerance and amalgamate people from various religious backgrounds.
It is easier to accept what we can understand.
Even from an economic view point, knowledge of different cultures and religions allows the world to be an open job market, where one can prosper in terms of adjustment.
