A9 TV, January 10th, 2012 CHP has applied to the Constitutional Court for the cancellation of the 4+4+4 law citing the following as the reason: “The law is damaging the secular, social legal order. It provides a relevant basis for the abuse of religion by degradation and polarization of public.” ADNAN OKTAR: They are exaggerating too much, that’s not the case. General knowledge but only Christianity and Judaism are also have to be integrated. What is Christianity? What is Judaism? These also have to be explained. Islam also needs to be explained. A person ought to have the knowledge in terms of liberal education. They need to do this punctually. October 16th, 2009, Dem TV PRESENTER: What do you think about the obligation of the religioous lectures in schools? ADNAN OKTAR: First of all, religion is the general culture. It is the main link that binds the community. In other words, the lack of knowledge of religion is an enormous gap in terms of culture. First of all, Judaism ought to be discussed. Christianity ought to be discussed very well. Sects and their culture needed to be discussed very well. The signs of the existence of God and the Oneness of God needed to be discussed very well. For example, regarding the invalidity of Darwinism, the existence of 250 million fossils which invalidate Darwinism needs to be mentioned. And if a person doesn’t have a knowledge of religion this is a huge deficiency. But Marxism also should be discussed. For example, a person without the knowledge of Marxism and Fascism has an enormous deficiency in terms of general culture. Even all those perverse denominations, perverse ideas have to be taught, such as what satanism is. Because a person who has knowledge of general culture is of high quality. What can you talk about with a person who doesn’t have knowledge of the general culture? For example, an issue is being talked about regarding Christianity. He looks on with a blank stare. No way, people should know about everything generally. Also the High schools and Secondary schools and Universities should be the places where the general culture is being discussed the most. |
