RT Article T1 Ein erster Blick auf die Einführung des freikirchlichen Religionsunterrichts in Österreich JF Theo-Web VO 15 IS 2 SP 295 OP 309 A1 Sander, Clemens ca. 21. Jh. LA German YR 2016 UL https://www.ixtheo.de/Record/1575474956 AB Religious education by Protestant free churches has been offered at Austrian schools since the 2014/15 school year. This article introduces the state-recognised religious community of free churches in Austria and describes the motives for the introduction of their own religion classes. It finds that there is a wide range of Protestant theology and education and that controversies arise predominantly in relation to the topic of biblical literalism. Religious education is advertised as being modern and varied and the curriculum is planned accordingly. The extent to which individual teachers actually implement this is a question which requires more research. (English) K1 Bibeltreue K1 Freikirchen K1 Österreich K1 Pluralität K1 Religionsunterricht
