In dealing with real-life religion the dimensions cannot be isolated from one another, so when we are studying the experimental dimension, looking at the psychological components of belief and behavior, we must take seriously into consideration the myths and ethics that shape people's lives. Morality is an important part of social development in people's lives. This study aims at understanding and analyzing literature of the psychology of religions and generalizing the implications of the psychology of religions and its application in moral education. Thus, the systemic and complex integration of the thought of religious psychology for the moral education of the students will help teachers understand the thought of religious psychology. It will also improve moral instruction and design effective moral teaching methods, which are based on the religious psychology. Therefore, teachers' work is to design effective teaching that can be conducive to later teaching of the religious education or moral education in teaching environment.
