Abstract
Religion and education are two expressively stimulating domains based on philosophical principles concerning masses at grass-root level. Study of religion in education has long been a subject of hot debate. There are two divergent opinions on study of religion in education from fundamental level. Proponents of this view argue that eliminating religious influence from education approves atheism in an implied manner and infuses in young minds the irrelevance of significance of religion in their daily life and would steer them away from the faith by generations. Their apprehension is counter argued by putting the point that a conservative approach to education in studies at the very basic levels is a threat to religious liberty and a curb to other faith systems as well. Religion studies are crucial to be a fait with historical events that took place to be aware of roles of society and religion in understanding variant nations in the world. The evocation of religious education at the fundamental level faces a variety of challenges owing to multi-faith and multi-cultural determining factors, for the religions have always been associated with a particular set of moral values and behaviors. These patterns and variant practices of each religion face the challenges of various implications of modern era, violence, racism, science and secularism, posing profound challenges. Religious and denominational tolerance is possible only by accepting the fundamental value of differing religious views and practices and fostering harmonization amongst religious and spiritual population so as to arrive at a just, passive and impartial world.
