Abstract

Basis of the article is RADEV, a research project at the North Rhine-Westphalien university of Duisburg-Essen. This examines religious education on demanding theological questions. In this context the religious attitudes of the pupils can often be seen very clearly. The focus of the article is their handling of the question of God: What observations have been made and what didactic challenges arise from this? Finally, the analyses are brought into the didactic discourse.
