Culture, Nature and Spirituality

Life in the Spirit can appear to us as a melding in action of the "timeless" and the "timely", the universally true and the very particular. This course explores how views of culture and society join with faith and tradition in forming our spiritual living and our understanding of it. Implications for contemporary issues: e.g., globalization, inter-faith relations, social ethics, friendship and methods of praying. Evaluation: short mid-term paper and final essay.
