REL 100/124 - God Doesn’t Do Religion (Core/First-Year Seminar)

Three or Four Credits
Not Offered 2017-2018

We tend to think that religion is all about God, but why? And if God “doesn’t do religion,” who does? What do we even mean by “religion” in these questions? This course will inquire into the “building blocks” of religion and human religiousness, considering the practices of Jews, Christians and Muslims from an anthropological and historical perspective.
