Pozycja Wychowanie rodzinne a autorytet Kościoła wśród młodzieży ponadgimnazjalnejPańków, Weronika; Rak, Agnieszka (Redakcja Wydawnictw Wydziału Teologicznego Uniwersytetu Opolskiego, 2014)The modem world is characterised by the lack of stability and by providing the choice amongst many, often conflicting values. In such conditions education of the young generation in the spirit of higher values, which are the bases for a mature understanding of faith, becomes extremely important and, at the same time, difficult. Religious education in the family is a foundation introducing young people into the world of faith and closeness to God. Unfortunately, more and more often the family ceases to be a carrier of the most crucial values – commonly, the parenting authority crisis is spoken of. In this crisis, the crisis of the Church should also be noticed. The research carried out by the team of PhD students from the University of Opole aimed to show the youths attitude towards religion. The research was carried out on the sample group of 590 high school students. The method of diagnostic survey was used. The goal of the study was to get to know the opinion of the youth on the authority of the Church and the role of family in the religious education. The participating young people notice that Church is going through a crisis. They see its sources mainly in inappropriate behaviour of some of the clergy. The analysis of the research indicates at the same time that the family is still an authority for youngsters. However, it should be emphasised that the quality of religious education in the family home becomes a question mark. The family stops being a carrier of religious values. It can be recognised as the source of crisis of the Church’s authority, which strongly and unequivocally favours higher values. This was evident in the answers of young people who recognise the Church’s authority, as they were more often motivated by the moral rules consistent with the teachings of the Church, as opposed to the respondents rejecting the Church’s authority.
