Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Truth About Secular Education: Its History and Results The aim of the following essay is to elucidate several points in connection with our system of education about which the most improper and injurious fallacies are current among us. Various circumstances have forced the question of education upon our notice at the present time. The settlement of 1870 could not aim to be a final and ideal scheme, because it had to effect a compromise between religious sects, whose strength and fortunes were subject to variation. A good compromise has been well defined as a manoeuvre by which you take all you can get of a good thing, and wait until you can get more. The two parties to the compromise in 1870 may be described as the party that wanted much religious dogma taught in the schools and the party that would be content with little; a third party, that desired the total exclusion of religious dogma, was then too small to have a share in the deal. The event that thus brought the idea of a settlement once more into the practical area is that one of these parties - the ultra-dogmatic or denominational bodies - is considered by the other to have obtained undue favour at the hands of the late Government. Once more the war cries of the contending parties resound in the land, and a new compromise is said to be inevitable. In the meantime the third party has been steadily growing. Clerical influence has shrunk in the most remarkable manner during the last thirty years. Rationalism has, to judge from the enormous success of its publications, attained a very considerable power.
