INT 104 - Introduction to the World’s Religions (3 cr.)

An introductory inquiry into the structures of five of the world’s major religions: Buddhism, Hinduism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam in their understanding of the relationship of the human and the divine. This course is an examination of both Eastern and Western religious traditions as a means of cultivating a critical and historical perspective on the related elements of myth, symbol, and ritual. In our study of religion, we seek to understand and appreciate how religious expression functions as an integral component of diverse human experiences.
