One of these attempts is our Waldorf School in Stuttgart, which was founded by Emil Molt, initially for the children of his factory. But since then it has already doubled in size! Pupils have flocked to this school from all walks of life and from all sides. This school is not a school of world view; it is only a slander when it is said that it is. It is not about grafting anthroposophical world view or some new religion into children. When this school was founded, I myself agreed to run the school. It was established from the very beginning that the religious education to be given to the children – to Catholic children by the Catholic priest and to Protestant children by the Protestant pastor – should be given by the children's respective religious teachers. We completely refrain from any kind of world view in this school. Only those children whose parents belong to no confession or the like, who therefore do not want to send their children to any religious education, should be free to attend religious education that we can provide ourselves. Otherwise, these children would have no religious education at all if it were not given to them. But those who want a particular religious education, based on the life they have grown up in, will receive such instruction from their religious teacher.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"2.

Einer dieser Versuche ist unsere Waldorfschule in Stuttgart, die durch Emil Molt zunächst für die Kinder seiner Fabrik begründet worden ist. Aber seither hat sie sich schon auf das Doppelte vergrößert! Von allen Ständen und von allen Seiten her sind Schüler dieser Waldorfschule zugeströmt. Bei dieser Waldorfschule handelt es sich nicht um eine Weltanschauungsschule; das ist nur eine Verleumdung, wenn das gesagt wird. Es handelt sich nicht darum, etwa anthroposophische Weltanschauung oder irgendeine neue Religion in die Kinder hineinzupfropfen. Ich selber habe, als diese Schule begründet wurde, mich bereit erklärt, die Schule zu leiten. Es war vom allerersten Augenblick an festgestellt, dass dasjenige, was den Kindern gegeben werden soll an Religionsunterricht - den Kindern, die katholisch sind, von dem katholischen Pfarrer, und entsprechend den Kindern, die evangelisch sind, von dem evangelischen Pfarrer —, den entsprechenden Religionsunterricht geben zu lassen, sie als die Unterrichtenden darin zu haben. Wir sehen ganz ab in dieser Schule von irgendeiner, irgendwie gearteten Weltanschauung. Nur diejenigen Kinder, welche Eltern angehören, die konfessionslos oder dergleichen sein wollen, die also ihre Kinder in keinen Religionsunterricht schicken wollen, denen soll freigestellt werden, in einen Religionsunterricht zu gehen, den wir selbst geben können. Also diese Kinder hätten sonst gar keinen Religionsunterricht, wenn ihnen dieser nicht erteilt würde. Diejenigen aber, die einen bestimmten Religionsunterricht haben wollen aus dem Leben heraus, aus dem sie erwachsen sind, die werden einen in dieser Weise von ihrem Religionslehrer erteilten Unterricht [erhalten].","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":258,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/80b/1921-01-28/p053"}],"english":["GA 80b/1921-01-28/p053"],"method":"identity","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":258,"en_words":255,"ratio":0.99,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","anchors","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.01,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":17469,"original_word_count":17257,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"The Inner Nature and Essence of the Human Soul","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA080b/English/SOL2024/19210128p01.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line","publisher_note":"The publisher is inferred from the edition code in this lecture's source URL, not stated by the source page.
