From an academic sense, I think religions - at least the big 5 most influential ones, should be taught in schools. Learning about how people view themselves in the world is an important part of learning why people act the way they do and how cultures develop.
Personally, if I was a business person or in politics, I would not send someone to a foreign country to deal with people there unless they knew everything they could about them; including their religion.
