Religion

Philosophers and theologians debate and try to define it; anthropologists attempt to explain it, and believers strive to live it – there is no question that religion has long fascinated humanity. Some of the toughest questions are addressed by religion: “What is the meaning of life?” or “Why are we here?” The School’s courses in Religion provide a broad view of how some of the world’s religions have tried to address some of these questions. The multiple perspectives offered by the world’s great belief systems are examined.
