The Baikal region is a tolerant multi-ethnic region ofRussiawhere the Russian speaking population (“Siberians”, “Semey”) and the indigenous people – the Buryats and the Evenki – have coexisted peacefully for centuries. One of the important factors in this regard is their respect for the religions of every nation: Russian Orthodoxy, especially in its Old Believer form, Buddhism and shamanism of the Evenki and the Buryats. Ethnoconfessional, spiritual values as the most important factor of socialization of the person require studying and psychological and pedagogical support in the years of training, not only at school in connection with the introduction of the subject “Fundamentals of religious cultures and secular ethics” in the 4th grade, but also in colleges and universities. From this perspective , the course in theology should be taught not only at the Faculty of History , but also at all the faculties of the university.
