What is the purpose of religious devotion or practice? What is the nature of religious experience? Is there such a thing as religious knowledge? Is religiosity compatible with reason? What is evil, and how does it fit into a religious viewpoint? This course considers philosophical reflection on such questions from within the Christian tradition as well as some other religious traditions, such as Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism. It seeks to foster dialogue among religious philosophies. Prerequisite: PHIL 110 or PHIL 115.
