Historically, thesepaI % / I ration of church and state I I was instated to protect reli ^^gious freedom, and some wonder if it has gone too far. What is meant by religion in education? Is it a doctrine or a viewpoint A person's defintion of religion determines their opinions on this subject. If taken as a frame of reference or a paradigm, then the question is, can a class be taught without personal bias? Rev. Tom H.B. Hall with United Methodist Campus Ministry said everyone teaches with a bias, but a teacher should not force his or her views on others. "Schools don't need to be made into labs for prayer. Things of faith should be taught by the _ community of faith," Hall said. He said that to use the schools for the spread of religion defeats the purpose of schools. However, Hall also said that to not address reli gious views in the classroom could lead stuI dents to a negative view of religion. Education includes learning about the many aspects of life, including how religion effects people, he said. B Most students interviewed said it is good that professors do not present their views as law in the classroom. But some said that while professors may present their views in the classroom, they are quick to qualify them as their views. Some students said they believe religion has not been removed from education but rather has been replaced by another religion. Christian students in a discussion in the Russell Jim ^ mm ^ ' ,M ^HS^m House said they believed that man replaces God in the classroom as the source of knowledge. They defined this as Humanism. Hall agrees that Humanism exists in classrooms and that it shouldn't be presented any more strongly than any other religious view. The problem these Christians said they see with Humanism is it's a seemingly unconscience effort. Hall said he believes it is necessary to present many different views in the classroom to provide students with a well -rounded view of the world. One may conclude that if a parent or student were interested in making religion part of his or her educational experience, then a religious school would be the best choice.
