Description:

Prereq. FA 110; HUM 150; CM 112 or IN 130 - In this course, the student explores the three monotheistic religions- Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. A third of the course is devoted to each religion, and four broad themes-monotheism, salvation, ethics, and community-are probed in each religious tradition, allowing the student to compare and contrast the three religions. In addition to being introduced to the scriptures of the three faiths (the Hebrew Scriptures, the New Testament, and the Quran), the student explores how the three faiths have developed historically and how they have interacted with each other throughout history from their beginnings down to the present.
