Abstract: This article discusses the use of the TV-show På tro og Are in religious education in Norway, using observations from a case study of religious education in an upper secondary school. The main focus of the article is on the show’s episode about Buddhism. This episode is controversial and has been criticized by the Buddhist Federation of Norway for representing Buddhism in a negative and erroneous way. Still, this episode is used extensively in the observed lessons. The article argues that the show is chosen for its entertaining and engaging character. However, the teachers also take steps to counter the problematic content. Using mediatization theory, the article analyses some consequences of using this type of media material in religious education.
Key words: På tro og Are, religious education, media, popular culture
