Abstract

The relation of religion and state has generally become problematic during the Republican history. The impressions of the state about the religion, in addition to the political dimension of problem affect the religious education completely. In specific periods, direct or indirect involvements to design religion show the differentiation between the perception of the state about religion and the perception of the society or the life style of them. In this respect, applied politics in front of the society are perceived as a threat which has to be opposed generally.
