About Religious Education in Bulgaria

Summary/Abstract: The issue of religion and religious education raises serious discussions. There are conflictingopinions about their place and role in the curricula and in general in the lives of adolescents,and this public discussion has been observed since the late nineteenth century. According to oneopinion, religion has no place in school education and issues related to religion should remainwith the family. Religious education, as fundamental to building a value system and toleranceamong the younger generation, is also supported by strong arguments. However, there is no unanimity as to when religious education should begin and how long, and what its content should be.There is another important question – the lack of interest in religious education among society,and especially among young people. This indifference can be explained to a large extent by politicstowards religion and religious communities during the socialist period.
