Abstract
The twenty first century has started with all its embedded challenges. These challenges have emerged in all fields. They will show their delicate and doubt raising presence in the realm of religious education accordingly.
This article contains four sections: in the first part, the fundamental challenge of the twenty first century is analyzed. Then taking the proper encounter with this challenge into account, the concept of religious education will then be investigated. This investigation is done in two separate ways. In one part the issue of the «concept of education» and in the other part the «concept of religion and being religious» are examined separately. Afterwards, we focus on the elementary issues of religion and being religious and finally we propose the fundamental topic of religious education in conformity with the fore mentioned challenge.
