The movement for restoring religious instruction in the State Shoo! of New Zealand is assailed from various points of view ;the two principal of zchich being tint of the Roman Church, and that of the school oj oseph Mc Cabe, the ap stle oj arid secularism. The latter school is represented by an organisation zvhich terms itself, forsooth, The National Schools Pel cine League and which, though it claimed and had the support of certain Christian Ministers, is none Hie less the advocal dogmatic secularism as laid dozen by its chief modern apostle. These two bodies presented petitions to the Parliament of New Zealand against th proposal of the Bible in State Schools League, zvhich advocates the restoration of religious instruction on the method known as the Australian System. It became necessai rfor me to appear before the Parliamentary Committee to zvhich the petitions zvere referred. Tins.- pages are the statement which I made to that Committee, to which I have added one note at p. t8j. The above circumstances explain the conditions circumscribing the form in which the matter is marshalled ,yet I hop that with the help of the index the booh may form a compendium oj reference to thost desirous oj acquaintance with the facts.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book documents the evolution of a religious education system in Australian state schools since 1866. The author argues that the system is modelled on a foundation of national unity between state and denominational religious education, successfully operating in other English-speaking settler nations and the United Kingdom. The author challenges the secularist stance of New Zealand's school system, and argues that its approach to religious education is unique in the English-speaking world. The author presents testimony from numerous independent figures within the Australian state education system, and from visitors to Australia from New Zealand, all asserting the success of the Australian system. This book argues that New Zealand is failing to provide a comprehensive education to its children by neglecting to cater to their spiritual education in the same manner as other English-speaking settler nations and the United Kingdom.
