Religion in America
Rulings Emphasize Excluding
Religion From Public
BY LOUIS CASSELS
United Press International
Nearly a century ago, a
Princeton theologian, the Rev.
Dr. A. A. Hodge, predicted
! U. S.
school
system would
eventually be-
r n m f "t h
A most efficient
'i Inclnimpni fnr
the propaga
tion of athe
ism which the
world has
Casseis ever seen,
"If every party in the state
has the right of excluding
from the public schools what
ever he does not believe to be
true," reasoned Dr. Hodge,
"then he that believes most
must give way to him that
believes least, and he that be
lieves least must give way to
him that believes absolutely
nothing, no matter in how
small a minority the atheists
and agnostics may be.
Dr. Hodge may have over
stated the case a bit. Few peo
ple today would accuse the
public schools of deliberately
"propagating atheism."
But neither are they pro
pagating belief in God. The
process of excluding religion
from public education has
been taking place inexorably,
just as Dr. Hodge prophesied.
In recent years, a succession
of court rulings has made it
virtually Impossible for public
schools even to acknowledge
the existence of a Supreme
Being.
Dawns On Parents
The full implications of this
fact are only beginning to
dawn on millions of Ameri
can parents, who have grown
accustomed to depending on
public schools to teach their
children everything they need
to know, from how to brush
their teeth to how to drive a
car.
These parents must now
realize that they have only
two alternatives if they want
their children to learn about
God.
The first alternative is to
arrange an adequate program
of religious education for each
child, outside of school hours.
Sending a child to Sunday
school is not an adequate pro
gram of religious education.
Any Sunday school teacher
will testify that very little
systematic religious instruc
tion can be accomplished in a
class which meets for one
hour a week, or less, and for
which little or no homework
is done.
Advent Christian
Topic Is Announced
"The Church, Wooden or
Human?" will be the 11 a.m.
message by the Rev. Fred O.
Sapp Jr., pastor of the First
Advent Christian church,
Sunday.
At 11:30 a.m. the children
will go to their Junior Church
chapel for an Old Testament
film story.
During the Sunday school
hour the children will demon
strate some of the things they
have learned at Vacation
Bible school this past week.
Sunday school classes will be
held from 9:45 a.m. to 10:15
a.m. The program will begin
at 10:20 a.m.
Sunday the doctrinal class
will meet at 6:30 p.m. and a
song service will follow at
7:30 p.m.
Wednesdav prayer meeting
and Bible study will be held
at the parsonage at 7:30 p.m.

will be studied.

MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD.
If a child is to learn the
basic concepts of a religious
faith, Sunday school must be
supplemented by a great deal
of teaching and reading at
home, or by a more extensive
training program under
church auspices, or ideally,
by both.
Use Released Tim
In some communities,
churches now provide so-called
"released time" religious
classes, conducted by profes
sional teachers. The name
comes from the fact that chil
dren are released from public
school, at stated periods dur
ing the week, to attend these
classes.
But only a relatively small
fraction of America's public
school children - fewer than
10 per cent - are now enrolled
in such programs.
Churches offer a variety of
other ways in which children
may receive a religious edu
cation comparable in quality
and intensity to the training
they get in, for example, bi
ology or home economics.
Week end religious schools,
with all-day programs, are
available to many Jewish and
Roman Catholic children who
attend uublic schools. Prot

Schools
estant churches offer Vaca

mer camps at which children
may receive systematic re
ligious training during public
school holidays.
Have Second Choice
The second alternative open
to parents is to pass up the
public schools and send their
children to church-sponsored
private schools which are free
to teach religious values and
concepts along with reading,
writing and arithmetic.
This is usually thought of
as a "Catholic solution," but
Catholics have never had a
monoply on the idea. Episco
palians and Lutherans have
always maintained fairly sub
stantial systems of schools.
And in the past few years,
Baptists, Methodists and other
Protestants have displayed a
growing interest in the idea
of establishing church-related
schools which could educate
children in an avowedly
Christian atmosphere.
If this alternative catches
on in a big way, America's
educational system, based for
the past century on the dom
inance of the free public
school, may be in for far
reaching changes.
