Effects of Religious Education on Theme and Style of James Joyce's The Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man Although Joyce rejected Catholic beliefs, the influence of his early training and education is pervasive in his work. The parallels between Biblical text and The Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man are abundant. As Cranly says to Stephen, "It is a curious thing, do you know, how your mind is supersaturated with the religion in which you say you disbelieve" (232). The novel progresses
There are many certificate and diploma programs in Religious Higher Education, but there has not been any research done into these programs and their effectiveness. There has been research into other educational certificates, such as vocational certificates, but not specifically religious educational certificates (Bosworth, 2010; Clark, 2002). It is the goal of this study to determine the ultimate applicability of religious education certificates and diplomas to the real world and the job market

For many in education, both teachers and students, religious education is a controversial subject. It is neither a core or foundation subject: it is described simply as being ‘part of the basic curriculum’, and until 1988 it was the only subject that was required to be taught at all (Ashton 2000). The presence of children of different faiths in many schools, gives the study of religion a reality, which is more difficult to achieve when all the children are at least nominally of Christian background
The nature of teacher and learner interactions of this approach stems from the foundation that every person teaches one another and that everything in life teaches. The formal teacher of the educational event is the facilitator of knowledge and conversation, yet is not the only authority on the topic. Everyone carries knowledge and can learn from one another through sharing authority.

statistics illustrate the vital need for sexual education to be taught in all types of schools, and the importance of informing the teens on the risk of their behaviors, since this is where teenagers spend most of their time. In January 2014, over half of the states are required by the federal government to teach sexual education (http://www.ncsl.org 2014). Unfortunately, in many religious based schools, students are not instructed in sexual education. In fact they promote abstinence until marriage

Milton Friedman, a free-market theorist, introduced vouchers, which funnel public funds to private schools, more than forty years ago (Resnick
deal of religious education. In his play, Hamlet, Shakespeare uses his knowledge of religion and culture to manipulate the reactions of the audience for which it was originally intended. This is seen by observing the way in which he exploits the Elizabethans' confusion concerning religion, his use of conflicting cultures to evoke responses in the audience, and the significance of Hamlet's Christian knowledge. The time in which Shakespeare's Hamlet was performed was one of great religious confusion

However, he had a burning faith in the destiny of social revolution and an iron determination to play a prominent role in it. His rise to power was bloody and bold, yet under his leadership, in an unexplainable twenty-nine years, Russia because a highly industrialized nation.

spiritual sense, and actively strove towards creating a newfound relationship with God. Personally, I’ve never labeled myself as religious but I’ve been a part of a youth group since the fifth grade. Then again, I only joined and stayed a part of it for the simple facts of making friends and free food. While those are not the best reasons to stay a part of a religious organization, they worked for me because it’s what led
