Public School Religion Studies: A New Freedom Through a Slow Revolution

Uphoff, James K.; And Others

Intellect, 105, 2377, 97-8, Sep/Oct 76

For this country to treat all religions with openness and understanding is a change of revolutionary proportions, and the public schools are one of the vehicles by which this change is coming. The approach of public schools toward providing religion studies was discussed from the time of the first publicly financed school system in 1642. (Author/RK)
