Many think that religion should be taught in schools while others think it should be avoided. Discuss both sides and give your opinion.
It is commonly believed that educating
religion
should be applied in the school
curriculum, while
there are other opposite perceptions that it should be evaded. Both views of this
controversy will be discussed but personally, I am of the belief that religious topics shouldn’t be included in school
education, which will be more beneficial for teachers and students
.
On the one hand, religious education plays a role in teaching students
to differentiate between right and wrong in their daily behaviour. In religion
, prayers have to follow their beliefs’ norms and standards ranging from imposing constraints on themselves to negative behaviours such
as being a burglar,... Mostly, the positivity of life is often the ultimate aim of all religions
. In school
, this
will help students
have a bright view of what activities they can do. Likely , it promotes a clear understanding of the benefits and consequences of each behaviour preventing students
from society's vices.
On the other hand
, implementing religion
in the school
curriculum will result in conflicts among students
. Each religion
has its own views towards life with absolute loyal, and dissension between these religions
is inevitable, sometimes it also
leads to worse consequences such
as fighting , … At school
, not all students
have the same beliefs, and most of them are following their parents’ beliefs. As a result
, educating them will frustrate their parents who have different opinions and likely the effectiveness of teaching religions
is likely diminished. Consequently
, the investment in religions
will be completely wasted.
In conclusion, notwithstanding that teaching religion
provides some benefits, the disadvantages outweigh those because of the ineffective it provides . Likely, religious education should only be applied in specific churches as it is the places gathering everyone who have the same beliefsSubmitted by nguyenmanhthi7111994 on
