""If We Wish To Reform Schools In Accordance With The Laws Of True Christians, We Must Remove Books Written By Pagans"" is a book written by John Amos Comenius. Comenius was a Czech philosopher, educator, and writer who lived in the 17th century. In this book, he argues that schools should be reformed in accordance with the principles of Christianity, and that this can only be achieved by removing books written by pagans from the curriculum.Comenius believed that the education system of his time was flawed and that it needed to be reformed. He argued that the education system should be based on Christian principles and that the curriculum should be focused on teaching students about God and the Bible. He believed that the study of pagan literature was harmful to students and that it should be replaced with Christian literature.The book is divided into two parts. The first part provides an overview of Comenius' ideas about education and the role of Christianity in education. The second part is a detailed critique of pagan literature and its harmful effects on students.Comenius' ideas about education were influential in his time and continue to be studied today. His emphasis on the importance of Christian education and his critique of pagan literature have been debated by scholars for centuries. This book provides a valuable insight into the thinking of one of the most important educational theorists of the 17th century.THIS 24 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Great Didactic of Comenius, by John Amos Comenius.
