Abstract

Vulnerabilities of religious education can be studies from different aspects. First of all this question is crucial that education in Islamic school is based on the minimum or maximum standards. The second assumption is that prophets are perfect human beings and their wisdom is flawless. However, in the stream of history religious practice has been exposed to distortion and biases.. The third assumption in that society is a dynamic status: it passes from traditional approach to modern stages. This transitional status brings some challenges to educational decisions. Our educational system in transitional status brings some challenges to educational decisions, our educational system in Iran face up with some inherent contradictions. On the one hand, students are expected to be critical thinkers, on the other hand educators expect people to practically abide by religion in an unquestionable manner. This kind of attitude has some internal inconsistencies.
