Churches Oppose Religious Studies in Public Schools

ST. LOUIS, Mo., (JTA) —
Teachers in American public
schools who are Christian were
urged, in a major study issued
by the National Council of
Churches, to avoid "temptations
to make of the school a church
and of the classroom an evan-
gelistic hall."
The recommendation was con-
tained in a study document on
the relation of religion to pub-
lic education which was author-
ized for publication by the Di-
vision of Christian Education of
the NCC, the central agency for
American Protestant church
groups, with a membership of
39,000,000 congregants. The di-
vision is holding its annual
meeting here.
The basic theme of the 30-
page document is that "the
people of the United States
choose to keep the churches as
institutions free from the con-
trol of the State, and the State
free from the control of the
churches.' It said that "public
school personnel should not aid
in, or permit, the distribution of

standing that public schools
should not enter into long-term
arrangements for church facil-

buildings and facilities should
be available at a fair rental to
churches during an emergency"
and on the same terms on which
they are available to other non-
profit groups in the community.
