Theology in Schools

Today I feel the need to touch on Religion in schools. Religion should be taught world wide so that the American youth can grow in their faith, and have a strong theological foundation incorporated in their lives. It is truly a shame that public schools outlaw such teachings, because that is just denying the works and teachings of God to the students. That is why attending Strake Jesuit is such a blessing. God is entrusted into our lives so thoroughly that we are capable of experiencing knew things to grow in our faith. Theology should also be taught world wide because though it can be a very complex and in depth subject, it is actually quite simple. Despite the memorization of facts in theological history such as dates or people, Theology is actually just a subject of simple common sense. That is why it is so easy for everyone to learn, but to truly dedicate ones life and follow in the footsteps of Jesus is a big step in the lives of Catholics. Anyone can learn Theology, but it is what you do with it and how you use it in your own life that defines you as a Catholic and follower of Christ.
