Major social changes, especially as a result the more multicultural
nature of society, have raised important issues about the teaching
of religion and the rational basis of different religious faiths.
Challenges for Religious Education addresses and critically
examines these changes and asks where religious education and Faith
Schools fit within secular society and indeed whether there is
still a place for them at all. Analysing what religious education
could look like if it were considered from a wider 'world views'
perspective that doesn't focus on a particular set of religious
beliefs, this book considers the 'reasonableness' of holding a
faith and therefore in teaching it; the ongoing tensions between
faith and reason; arguments for and against the study of religious
education; whether modern secular thought is itself an ideology;
and the philosophical standpoints on the relationship between faith
and reason. Linking faith and reason with the issue of whether
religious education is truly necessary in a modern world,
Challenges for Religious Education is a crucial read for anyone
interested in the future of religious education teaching in a
secular society.
