RELIGION REFORMER STATES THAT WHEN SCHOOL CHILDREN LEARN SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE THEY LOSE THEIR MORAL VALUES


36 - The reformer says:

"Children, after learning religious knowledge and believing in many things at home, study mathematics, biology and scientific subjects when they go to school. The things in which they have believed before without seeing and the knowledge which they learn by seeing and thinking about in high school conflict with each other in the children's brains. The belief and morals which they have learned before deteriorate. And they cannot establish a new belief or morals with their fresh information. I have not seen a youngster who has formed a new belief and morals firm and based on knowledge."

The religion reformer means that the youngsters who have graduated from high schools have neither religious knowledge and religious morals nor morals that is independent of the religion and based on sheer thought and mental knowledge. The lessons taught in the high school, science, biology and astronomy do not harm or annihilate the iman attained at home, but they strengthen it. Islam commands learning the latest scientific knowledge with the intention of making iman conscientious and firm, living comfortably and being ready to oppose disbelievers' attacks.
