Major content areas include religious frameworks (types of expression, structures, personal beliefs, definitions, and phenomena); sociological, psychological, and philosophical perspectives; historical development of religious traditions and practices; and comparative analysis of religious narratives around the globe. Religions covered include Indigenous Religions, Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism, Daoism/Taoism, Confucianism, Shinto, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, NeoPaganism, Modern African/Caribbean traditions, Baha’i, and Scientology, as well as modern ideas such as Secularism. Participants will be enriched by a cornucopia of religious traditions, backgrounds, and evolutionary developments throughout the history of humanity.
