Sects and New Religious Movements, Jehovah's Witnesses
HOVJACKÁ, Veronika
Religious groups are societies, which aims to transcendental realities, but are realized among particular people and in particular time and society. It is interesting to study the relationship between society as a whole and these sub societies. One way of how the main society expresses its relationship towards religious groups, in a broader sense, is the registration of these groups as a state recognized religion. This status is desired and appreciated by the religious groups as it can change their position in public eyes. This thesis is a reflection about how difficult, and maybe even deceptive, is looking for criterions for registration or not registration. It is simply about describing borders between the terms ``sect{\crqq} and ``church{\crqq}. Intuitively, this border is something quite clear, but when we need to decide for or against registration, intuitive criterions by themselves are not enough.

Catechetical methodology of St. Augustin
ČANDOVÁ, Zdeňka
The thesis tries to answer how the Augustine's manner of searching the truth affected his pastoral ministry and catechesis as well as what methods can modern catechetists find in the Augustine's cathechetical writtings. It is based especially on the dates of Augustine's life and it analyses some of his works. In his catechetical treatises Augustine pointed out the different level of education of hearers and he recomended his readers to bring themselves down to the level of the lowest of their hearers, even as Christ humbled himself. On his opinion it does not matter if there are different opinions about an issue. What is important is to have everybody the same purpose which is the sincere effort to know the God's truth. The main objective of catechesis is leading to faith, hope and love. Augustine pointed out the unity and purity of the Church as the key point for the human salvation.

Identification and self-fullfilment the person in the God.
KRCHŇAVÁ, Klára
The thesis describes a religious conversion of a human being as a process of turning/affiliation his/her life to the God. The conversion is understood here as a process of forming a new identity. The first part follows the view on human life without the God through three different fields {--} psychology, sociology and theology. The psychological view shows the possible levels of identification of a man/woman and his/her desire for self-fullfilment. Sociology gives us the reflection of sociological researches of contemporary deconsecrated society. Theology tries to explain the possible causes of deconsecration and diversion from the institutionalized religion in the Czech republic. The second part summarizes the problems of human life with the God. In compare with the previous part the second part is understood as a view on a convert´s life. Psychology shows the possible problems of conversion in psychical processes of a human being. The sociological part follows predominantly two lines of the process of conversion- {\clqq}drift model`` and {\clqq}brainwashing model``. The theological point of view describes the process of Christian initiation of a young man/woman. The final part follows the process of identification of a man/woman with the Church.
