In what ways can the study of psychology of religion benefit the teacher of religion? Examine the importance of psychology of religion to the teacher...

This is a
great question. Let me make a few point of how psychology of religion can help the teacher of
religion.

First, we need to realize that most of the people in the world is
religious. This might be an unbelievable statement, but it is true. People thought that
religious would decline, but we are seeing an explosion of it. Hence, it would be great to ask
the question, "why." An angle of that psychology provides might also be very
valuable.

Second, the way our minds work when it comes to religion can be a
very fruitful topic of exploration. This alone would merit teacher of religion to know something
about psychology.

Finally, when it comes to supernatural things, there is a
fine line between sanity and insanity. This intersection is worth exploration as
well.
