This course introduces students to the infinitely diverse ways in which groups express religious ideas - in the process rendering the familiar strange and the strange familiar. This course will examine universal and culture-specific aspects of religion, focusing primarily on "traditional" (i.e., non-scriptural) religions in order to explore some fundamental features common to all systems of religion. The course will also investigate new developments in religious belief and practice in a globalizing world.
