How to treat teenagers' religious beliefs correctly

"(Selected Works on Religious Work in the New Period, p. 60) This is" not compulsory "but" forbidden ",so the religious belief of teenagers cannot be completely banned in the implementation. Therefore, the document also reflects the policy of young people's freedom of religious belief. Zhao Puchu, vice chairman of Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, pointed out in his letter to the Central Committee on the correct treatment of young people's religious belief: "Religious belief and non-religious belief are not political divisions, nor are they standards to measure progress and backwardness, physical and mental health and unhealthy, and religious belief cannot be regarded as an obstacle and harm to the healthy growth of young people as successors of the socialist cause. There are hundreds of millions of religious people in China, and more than two-thirds of the people in the world are religious. It is unimaginable that so many people will become ideologically and politically backward or even reactionary and unhealthy because of their religious beliefs. In fact, great scientists, great writers, great artists and other university scholars at home and abroad, and people with lofty ideals who have devoted themselves to national liberation and social progress, are many religious believers; As for the workers, peasants and other laborers who have created wealth for the society and pushed forward the history, there are countless religious believers among them. Religious teenagers may not grow up healthily as Marxist politicians and party workers (if they stick to their religious beliefs), but they may grow up as various professionals, honest socialist workers and loyal patriots. At present, the outstanding problems that hinder the healthy growth of young people are: political liberalization and the corrosion of money worship, hedonism and extreme egoism, which are manifested in ideological emptiness, moral decay, lax law and discipline, and criminal offences, rather than a few young people believing in religion. " "Under the current conditions, some young people believe in religion, and even the number has increased. This is a social phenomenon with objective inevitability. Except for a few special cases, we can't generalize the view that "class struggle is the key link" as religion and we compete for young people. "Therefore, the so-called' prohibition' legal and administrative means cannot be used to deal with the religious beliefs of young people.
