If a child is taught in school about a vast number of things – for 25 hours a week, eight or nine months of a year, for ten to sixteen years or more – and if for all this time matters of religion are never seriously treated, the child can only come to view religion as, at best, an innocuous pastime preferred by a few to golf or canasta.
