RELI 101 - An Examined Life: Religious Approaches to Enduring Questions

1 unit(s)

What is a good life? How do we understand dying and death? Does God exist? Is there evil? Why do we suffer? How do we love? What’s the proper way to treat one’s neighbor? This class explores the variety of ways that religious thinkers have responded to these ancient, persistent, and troubling questions about the nature of human existence. Our focus is on philosophical texts, however we also consider filmic representations of these problems. Jonathon Kahn.

Two 75-minute periods.
