What? Me worry?
He did actually. He mentioned the "confessional" faiths and proposed to teach a bit about them all to show their common root.
Only as a 'face-saving' move, imho.

So what problem do you have with what he actually said?
My question was "Do you oppose teaching about religion in schools?"Christianity is not allowed in schools now.
And we have a Nitt- Witt (Biden) who wants to teach Islam in our schools!!!
Not sure how many teachers of any faith can maintain a high degree of objectivity when it come to "teaching about" their beliefs.
My complaint about Biden is that he seems to want something for Islam (that its fundamentals be taught in schools) that he or at least his supporters would never tolerate for an instant if it was Christian belief and practice.
How much emphasis is the teacher going to place on the nature and role of Islamic law for example?
God knows what they'd do if asked to teach about Islam.
Yes, at worst I would have to crash tackle that incompetent prejudiced teacher. At best, I would be complaining to the school for giving my kids poor information on Islam (such as the political garbage people like to spout).
My question was "Do you oppose teaching about religion in schools?"
You didn't answer.
Personally, I think religion should be taught about. It's a major factor in the human situation.
Here where I live, the problem is Christians. If the school doesn't teach what their denomination or belief system teaches, they don't want kids to be taught anything at all. It's Christians who object to teaching kids about religion, not atheists or Hindus or whatever.
So, I'm asking you again. Do you think schools should teach kids about religion?
