Religion Course

Religion can be understood in several ways:

• As a virtue, religion is the habit of giving worship to God. It is the part of justice concerned with fulfilling our obligations toward God. It includes the duties of adoration, gratitude, prayer, and offering sacrifices — the holy Mass.
• As a science, religion deals with knowledge about God and our relationship and obligations toward him. It includes the study of divine manifestations, the truths we know, the gifts God gives us, and the response due from us. Religion as a science is usually called theology, the science of God.

Both. Religion is a theoretical and practical science. It contains truths that can be studied and consequences that are applied in life.

Like any other science, the simplest way is to have someone nearby to advise and guide. But it can also be learned individually, at least in theory. Below we present a basic religion course. (Catholic religion with ecclesiastical authorization.)

The basic course consists of 15 very brief lessons — one page per lesson. Every two or three lessons there is a self-assessment exam. You can download the religion course here, or follow it online: basic religion course.

Each person should act as they prefer. One system might be:

• First, browse through the course to become familiar with it.
• Then, print the lessons — unless you prefer to study at the screen.
• When you feel you already know the corresponding lessons, you can try an exam. If the grade is below eight, a review is recommended.

-

• Does this course provide official certification? — No.
• Can it be used for groups? — It can be used as desired. The course exams provide additional motivation, which will also be useful to groups.
• Can children use it? — Young children will benefit more if another person guides them.
