Teaching Of Religion

4 G0cnIng or NetGgtOn
Mr.. w. A. s. Douglas,
Dear Mr.. Douglas:
Permit me to commend the
clear thinking, common sense,
and complete lack Of prejudice
shown in your article, June %,
on education in The Washing
ton Times.
Catholics, as you no doubt
know, have no quarrel with pub
lie education as far as it goes
nor are we the only ones who
realize that it does not go far
enough to educate the whole
man.
The teaching Of religion-even
if it only be that part on which
Catholics, ProteStantS, and Jews
are agreed - would show a
marked reduction in crime.
Realizing that there is some
thing missing in our educational
system, there has been much
clamor over recent attempts to
introduce character education,
without looking a little deeper
to find what character is based
on. For without religion-if
there is no God and we are but
highly developed animals-why
should we take the trouble to
avoid evil and do good?
I believe that it will not be
long before the Federal Bureau
Of Investigation, which has an
excellent chance to study crime
and its causes, will come. out
definitely in favor of the more
complete education.
