Abstract: | This article aims to consider a few of the important limitations of the types of religious education programs that the Ethics and Religious Culture program integrates into its present form. These limitations are structured around the concept of culture, which reduces religion to certain aspects that, while theoretically relevant and necessary, create a concrete problem in educational practice. These limitations increase with the transversal approach that is used when comparing religions. These limitations can be observed in Buddhism and Native Spirituality, two traditions that present what is known as “Impressionist Illusion” and “Religious Fiction.” |
