This course will use Gerald McDermott's 'Indispensable Introduction to the World Religions' as a text to explore the great religions of the world. McDermott not only gets at the essence of the world's major religions, he also reflects on how Christians should appreciate and make sense of those religions without succumbing to universalism, i.e., believing that they are just different routes to the same goal. St. John will furnish texts to all those who want to take the course.

This class will meet in the Community Room.
