Summary/Abstract: Challenges in teaching religion are analysed from different perspectives and in different aspects. In the diagnosis of problems, one of the most important factors is the opinion of religion teachers who confront these challenges directly and on a daily basis. This article is an analysis of the results of a survey of religion teachers in this context. Challenges from the stu- dents, parents, the institutional Church, the school and finally challenges from the parish itself are discussed. Among the most serious challenges, the lack of faith among the pupils and the lack of the need for faith development were identified. The research shows that the strongest correlate of attitudes towards Religious Education in school is religious indifference and waning religiosity.
