RELI 100-002: Human Relig Experience
(Fall 2017)

10:30 AM to 11:45 AM TR

Section Information for Fall 2017

This course asks the big questions about religion---What is it? Where did it come from? What does it do in people's lives?---and the even bigger question of how we could possibly go about trying to study "religion" in the first place. We'll approach these topics through case studies of religions from a wide range of times and places, thereby cultivating both an awareness of major world religions and the tools to understand these religions in all their diversity.
