RE should include interfaith rather than being removed from schools, argues Theology professor

In brief

Dr. Peter Admirand argues that religious education in Irish schools should adopt a broader curriculum featuring interfaith and religious pluralism instead of being removed from classrooms.

In an opinion article published by the Irish Examiner, Dr. Admirand, a theology professor and director of the Centre for Interreligious Dialogue at Dublin City University, suggested that the current approach to religious education needs to become more robust.
