A Course of Religious Instruction - Apologetic, Dogmatic, and Moral; For the Use of Colleges and Schools #245466

When religious teaching is confined to the first ele ments of Christian doctrine, and only goes so far as to impress an exact knowledge of them on the memory of children, it is called Catechism, the primary or first course of religious instruction. When it rises to the science, properly so called, or the expounded knowledge of religious truths, it is styled higher course of religious instruction.
