因非基督教运动、中国政府对教育权的收回等原因,近代中国教会大学以宣教和培养神职人员为初衷的宗教教育日益受到严峻的冲击。为了应对这些冲击,教会大学就宗教教育的宗教课程和课外宗教活动等方面作出了调整,教会大学的宗教教育就此经历了一个“世俗化历程”。 Due to the non-Christian movement and the Chinese government’s withdrawal of the right to education, religious education in the early days of the Chinese National Chiao T’uan University with the mission of educating and training clergy was increasingly severely challenged. In response to these shocks, the Church University made adjustments to the religious curricula and extra-curricular religious activities of religious education. As a result, the religious education of the Christian universities underwent a “secularization process.”
