As our society becomes increasingly global, we naturally encounter different religions. Sometimes the information we have about other religions is accurate, sometimes it isn’t. The purpose of this course is to provide accurate information about a variety of religions. How did the religion begin? Who are the major people? What rituals and beliefs drive the religion? These and many other questions will be addressed in an open and unbiased way for “Dharmic” religions (Hinduism, Buddhism, etc.), “Abrahamic” religions (Judaism, Islam, etc.), and “Taoic” religions (Confucianism, Taoism, etc.). http://polytechnic.k-state.edu/profed/osher.html
