Everyone does philosophy. Some do it well. Others do it poorly. However, whether or not one will do philosophy is not an option. Simply put, everyone does philosophy. Philosophy addresses the big questions - what does it mean to be human, what does it mean to be good or to live a good life, what is happiness and how do we know Philosophy involves self-reflection - who am I, what is my role in the universe, do I matter A goodly portion of the philosophic mindset is a simple curiosity - the questioning, the asking "Why " We address these questions and many others - nature of reality, existence of God, etc. - by entering into conversation with great philosophers of the past, with colleagues in the course, and with popular culture. In these conversations, our fundamental assumptions become clearer, our ability to analyze and think critically about ourselves, our communities, and our world becomes sharper, and our perspective on all these matters can become both broader and deeper. Prerequisite: ENG 1803 with a C or better and Honors standing.

This course is a hybrid. On the one hand, it is designed to familiarize students with the wide variety of religious traditions that populate the world. Some of the material will be very familiar to some and completely foreign to others; some will likely be completely new. On the other hand, it is a philosophy course. The central topics in the philosophy of religion concern the nature of the divine, the nature of humanity, the Problem of Evil, cosmogony and cosmology, fundamentalism, tolerance, and ethics. In an increasingly globally integrated world, the questions of comparative religion and the coexistence of religions making rival claims has become inescapable. We will treat both the variety of religions and their rather diverse responses to these and other philosophical questions. This course satisfies the Non-Western general education requirement.
