World Religions
This course provides an introduction of major non-Christian religions such as Hinduism, Buddhism, Shinto, Judaism, and Islam. Before exploring these traditions, the course focuses on a beginning chapter, which discusses the common elements in all religions such as doctrines, sacred stories, and rituals as these components form the traditions of a religion. The chapter also looks at the nature of religious experience, ethics in religion, and the role of revelations.  A second chapter features some typical primal religions through a study of the Aborigines in Australia, the Yoruba in Africa, and the Lakota (Sioux) in the United States.  The overall purpose of the course is to promote an understanding of other peoples and religions so that students may come to respect the different traditions and thus become agents of tolerance and peace in a divided world. In addition, the course offers a more personal benefit to students: as they learn about other religions, they can arrive at a more precise understanding of their own.
