Roy Sun, 14 Sep 2008 13:26:59 +0000 http://beyond-school.org/?p=1067#comment-5576 An interesting post and great comments to boot. Playing off of the freedom question from the previous blog post I wonder how in a secular school environment students are allowed the freedom to ask the questions of: Who is God, who are they, who is Christ, and why the Church? These questions certainly take critical thought from anyone who dons the descriptor "believer". I work in a Catholic school and our students are free to debate these questions all day long. Of course we seek to pass on the Gospel and do so. Our chaplain is quick to remind all of our faculty that if what we believe in the end is really the "Truth" then why would we fear dialogue on these issues and engaging questions about these core issues. Long live the debate because from it comes learning. Charlie A.
