Abstract

This paper makes an analysis of religion in the basic curriculum of the subject of Philosophy of the State of Espirito Santo and its teaching practice. Since Philosophy is a compulsory subject at high school level, we used official documents as the LDB and the basic curriculum adopted by the State as a reference for our research. It is known that religious influence in Brazil can be found in all areas, and this dissertation looks how these influences appear in the basic curriculum proposal of the State of Espírito Santo, particularly its consequences on the content of Philosophy administrated to high school. In the course of this research we found that several expressions, customs or religious heritages lost their strong religious connection because of secularization and became cultural phenomena. Some important ones were presented here. In the study we observed that the teaching aims at better education of the human being and not just a simple transmission of knowledge. This is a concern of the laws that support the teaching in Brazil. Thus, the proposed themes were analyzed for the teaching of Philosophy and how religion influences are present in the classroom. The issue at hand is not just a systematic analysis of the issues with religious dimensions in the subject of Philosophy, but also why these issues are present in the basic curriculum proposed by SEDU for competence. Thus we analyze how religious nature of issues on the menu of Philosophy and propose issues such help in the consolidation of a well-informed citizen, and at the same time, with a human formation that enables you to deal with the world around you. Through field research and documentary research it was concluded that the religious influence is alive and present in the philosophy of discipline.
