PHIL302

The emphasis will be on "living" religions, i.e. those that are still practiced today. They include: Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Sikhism and Bahai. The readings will consist of textbook narratives as well as excerpts from the Scriptures that form the basis of the religions. We shall pay particular attention to the advice religions give their adherents as to how to live a good life.
