I wonder in Ceecee's home school if she covers Homer, Sumeria, Hammurabi, Aristotle, Mycenae, Crete, the civilizations of the Indus and Yellow rivers, classical Greece and the Republic and Empire of Rome, and, oh, several dozen vitally important topics to understanding western civilization?
Amazingly enough, less of that is necessary to understanding Western Civ than you imagine. That would be why college classes on the subject spend so little time discussing those things.
I'm not surprised you don't realize how often the Bible is referenced in just everyday life, let alone in literature and the arts. Neither am I surprised that you labor under the delusion that ancient Sumeria regularly crops up in those areas, requiring extensive knowledge of it rather than a passing explanation of its relevance on the occasions when it shows up. You are clearly an example of why my children don't go to public school.
