This course will examine the Bible and Qur'an and compare them. Points of comparison might include: competing claims of divine inspiration; creation, Adam and Eve; Joseph; the law; Mary and Jesus; Mohammed and Jesus. This course has three goals. First, to gain an understanding of each broad tradition (Islamic from the Qur'an, and Jewish and Christian from the Bible); second, to develop a method by which to approach sacred texts, a way to see their relevance and power; and third, to appreciate both the differences and similarities in these two sacred texts, both in their literary features, and in their effect upon society. This course fulfills the Human Diversity requirement in the core curriculum. Prerequisite: THEO 101 and one 200-level or 300-level THEO course, and PHIL 115
