dc.description.abstractMy first reaction when I was invited to submit an article on 'Education in Post-Christian Ireland'was to ask why assume that we are living in, or about to live in a post-Christian society? Is Ireland today any less Christian than it was a generation ago, or a century ago, or a millennium ago? How does one define a Christian society, or, for that matter, a post-Christian society? Is it adherence to organized, denominational religion? Or is it a Christian attitude towards our fellow men and women? If the fundamental message of Christianity is love, is there evidence that Irish society today is less loving and caring than it was in the past? It is in this spirit of scepticism about the concept of post-Christianity, that I reflect on this theme.en
