1 WORLD RELIGIONS Spring 201x Philosophy 210 Section 1001 Prof. Kenneth G. Lucey Tue. & Thur. 1:00-2:15 WRB D (784- Cain Hall 4308) Office Hours: Tue., Wed. & Thur., 11:30-12:30 & by appointment or drop in. COURSE OBJECTIVES This course is designed for the specific purpose of introducing the student to key features of the major world religions, and thereby allow student to demonstrate an awareness of the diversity of world cultures by an understanding of their religious beliefs and practices. This is done by describing the beliefs, rituals and histories of these religions, with a focus upon religious practices & their impact upon societal values, concerning race, ethnicity, gender and social class. The religions of the world are very diverse in a number of ways. For example, they differ in their core beliefs. Some are henotheistic (Judaism), others dualistic (Zoroastrianism), others monotheistic (Christianity & Islam), and still others atheistic (forms of Buddhism). Religions are also diverse in their ethics, such as Confucianism s Silver Rule, Judaism s Ten Commandments, Christianity s Golden Rule, & Buddhism s Eight Step Path. Religions also differ widely in their treatment of gender and social class, a specific example of which is Hinduism class system, the patriarchal organization of various religion s leadership, and Islam s policies toward polygamy. The second purpose of the course is to explore the philosophical background of these religions. This in the sense of examining the philosophical presuppositions that they each make about the nature of human beings, and their relationships to the world and gods or God, and the quite distinct concepts of God that different religions contain. The metaphysical/ontological presuppositions of religions differ widely from one another as do their account of the mind/body relationship exhibited by humanity, as well as very different conceptions of an afterlife. Sheol, heaven, hell, purgatory, reincarnation, etc. are all as diverse in their conceptions as they are in their supporting beliefs and arguments. CLASS ORGANIZATION Every meeting of the class will begin with a lecture about the religion under discussion, and the approach will be mostly descriptive and only critical to the extent of trying to get clear about the key concepts involved. It is not any purpose of this course to try to say whether any of these religions are true, although students are encouraged to develop and defend their own beliefs about these issues. Where appropriate, lectures will be supplemented with videos exhibiting key rites of a religion (such as previously secret Taoist rituals). The hope and intent is that every class meeting will provide an opportunity for questions concerning the material that is presented in lecture and in the reading assignments. 1
2 SILVER CORE CURRICULUM This course satisfied Core Objective 10 [CO10] ( Diversity and Equity ) and Core Objective 11 [CO11] ( Global Contexts ). Brief description of CO10: Students will demonstrate an understanding of diversity through courses that focus on topics such as race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, religion, physical ability, language, and/or social class with an emphasis on the analysis of equity. Students will apply and evaluate approaches or modes of inquiry used to analyze diversity and equity and the social barriers to these goals. Brief description of CO11: Students will apply and evaluate modes of academic inquiry, creative expression, or results of research to problems in historical and contemporary global contexts. Students will articulate connections among local, national, and international contexts and evaluate the ways that historical and contemporary global influences affect their current situations. STUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMES As a result of taking this course, students will be able to: 1. Describe the values and world view of at least two religious traditions that have not been historically dominant in the culture of North America or Western Europe. 2. Explain how different religious traditions offer contrasting accounts of human well-being, and show how differences in their accounts can affect social practices. 3. Clarify what is at stake when controversies arise within a particular religious outlook, or when conflicts arise between different outlooks, either historically or in a contemporary global setting. 4. Identify key presuppositions of religious conceptions across multiple traditions, as well as the similarities and dissimilarities between them that history or cultural experience make relevant. COURSE TEXTS There are two texts for this course. The first is a classic by Huston Smith, The World s Religions, (c) The second is World Religions, 7th ed., by Warren Matthews. Both are paperbacks.

Yet any class may begin or end with a quiz on the reading assignments for that day, and there shall be at least a dozen such during the semester. If any changes are made in the assignments they will be made at the end of the prior meeting. A quiz not taken is recorded as a zero. A missed quiz can be made up by writing a 150 word essay on a topic specified by your instructor. The quiz average for the semester will count for 20% of the final grade for the course. Each of the three tests will likewise count for 20% of the final grade. Two five-page papers will be written on an assigned topic, which will be jointly worth 20% of the final grade. The first paper will be due on March 10; the second on May 6. The three exams are February 19, April 3, and May 12. GRADING SCALE The following is the scale we will be using for all assignments in this course: A (94-100%) the highest grade, is given for work of exceptional quality. Each credit earned with a grade of A carries 4.0 grade points. A- (90-93%) carries 3.7 grade points for each credit earned. B+ (87-89%) carries 3.3 grade points for each credit earned. B (83-86%) is awarded for better-than-average work. Each credit earned with a grade of B carries 3.0 grade points. B- (80-82%) carries 2.7 grade points for each credit earned. C+ (77-79%) carries 2.3 grade points for each credit earned. C (73-76%) represents average work. Each credit earned with a grade of C carries 2.0 grade points. C- (70-72%) carries 1.7 grade points for each credit earned. D+ (67-69%) carries 1.3 grade points for each credit earned. D (63-66%) carries 1.0 grade point for each credit earned. D- (60-62%) carries 0.7 grade points for each credit earned. D- is the lowest passing grade for which undergraduate credit is allowed. F (0-59%) represents failure. Note: No credit or grade points are earned with a grade of F. Failed courses count as credits attempted.
