Description:

America is a religiously pluralistic country, and almost all the religions of the world can be found here. Some of these world religions are well established while others are new arrivals, but all share the struggles of adapting to the new and distinct religious world of the United States. This course will focus on the non-Christian religions that have found a home in America, about their struggles to adapt and flourish, and the strategies they have employed to become a permanent force in modern America. NWEST, Spring semester, odd years.
