6 A stunning styled old Dogon Walu antelope mask from my own collection. This previously was in an old gentleman s collection in France to which he owned it for over 50 years. This piece is very aged to look at and worn beautifully, especially where the original netting has worn the wood. The certificate and the custom made stainless steel stand are also part of the sale What is a pizza? 23 24
7 Definitions Definitions are: Created by people Interpretations Subject to change Don t always fit all the data Powerful Indigenous Who is Indigenous? Who gets to say? Why does this matter? Indigenous Impact of definitions on people s lives: Treaty rights (e.g., land claims) Indigenous people viewed by colonizers as less than human (not civilized ) Residential schools; not allowed to vote (until 1960) Religion Impact of definitions on people s lives: Categorize items as artifacts (okay to take them and put them in museums) Make religious practices illegal Potlatch ban in Canada ( ): how did Indigenous people resist? 27 28

9 I fell down on my knees and thanked Heaven from an overflowing heart. Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf Have witnesses when you barter. The Qur an (Islam) See what large letters I make when I am writing in my own hand!

What determines if something is seen as religious or not? 1. Context / information 2. Definition How can something be religious and NOT religious at the same time? Different definitions of religion! (some might apply but others not) 39 40
11 Religion is the state of being ultimately concerned. (Paul Tillich) Religion is a feeling of absolute dependence. (Friedrich Schleiermacher) Religion is a system of beliefs and practices related to sacred things, uniting people into a community. (Émile Durkheim) Definitions Religion is anything that involves nonfalsifiable realities. (James Cox) Religion involves supernatural beings. (Antoine Vergote) Red Willows Fart, fart. Definitions Have witnesses when you barter Religion is about meaning and value beyond self-centredness. (Huston Smith) Red Willows Fart, fart. Definitions Have witnesses when you barter. How can something be religious and NOT religious at the same time? Fart, fart. Definitions This is NOT religious according to Vergote s definition This IS religious according to Smith s definition 43 44
12 Definitions Merriam-Webster Dictionary: An organized system of beliefs, ceremonies, and rules used to worship a god or a group of gods. (similar to Vergote) An interest, a belief, or an activity that is very important to a person or group. (similar to Smith) Song Say Amen by Panic! at the Disco (2018) Say Amen I pray for the wicked on the weekend Mama, can I get another amen? Swear to God, I ain t ever gonna repent Mama, can I get another amen? If every night I go to sleep knowing That I gave everything that I had to give Then it s all I could ve asked for I ve been standing up beside everything I ve ever said What does Nye mean when he states that nothing is intrinsically religious? (p. 19) 47 48
13 Definitions ANYTHING can potentially be considered religious by someone Depends on definition and context Examples: witnesses, handwriting, diarrhea Also: punching!

15 Sports and Religion/s I m studying to be a rabbi. I m a little worried that I ll be out of a job because less and less people seem to find religion meaningful. I even think that loving a baseball team can be a religious experience. I was here in 2012 when Santana pitched his no hitter. Everyone in this stadium was holding their breath at the exact same time. And when the game ended, everyone screamed with the same joy. We all felt so connected at that moment. And I think that was holy. Religion Sports and Religion/s Nye p Athletes as cult heroes Worship teams Sacred space Mysticism and magic Ways in which sports is similar to religions 59 60
16 Ritual! Text! World Religions World religions approach (p. 9-14): The study of major traditions: Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism, Sikhism, Taoism Separate, distinct Classifications: texts, ideas, founders, histories, rituals, etc. Useful starting point 63 World Religions Problems with world religions approach? 1. Treats traditions as singular, ignores huge diversity within each (Nye: we should refer to Christianities, Islams, etc.) 2. Treats traditions as entirely separate and distinct (ignores hybridity, effect of local cultures on traditions, etc.) 3. Ignores minority religions (e.g., Indigenous traditions) 64
17 World Religions Problems with world religions approach? 4. Focuses on big things (e.g., major rituals, founders, sacred texts, etc.) Men 5. Marginalizes/ignores small things (e.g., personal experiences, letters, ordinary participants, etc.) Everyone! 65 Study of Religion Religion is complicated! Many many (MANY!!) definitions Enormous diversity (between traditions AND within traditions) Social AND individual Transcendent (abstract) AND concrete (day to day) Religion and Religions
