Abstract

On June 9, 2005, during a roundtable meeting "With love and concern for children", the President of Ukraine instructed the Ministry of Education to develop a special course for a new subject for comprehensive schools - the ethics of faith. At the same time, he set a task for the Ministry from September 1 to start teaching this course in schools, expressing confidence that the Ministry of Education "will have time to work on this issue in two to three months". He noted that “it is a question of God, of faith in one form or another: it does not aim to unilaterally cover this issue. The general approaches of all churches should be taken. "
