12 week course exploring non-faith based approaches to religion
Does religion have any enduring meaning, value, or use? According to the philosopher Jürgen Habermas, the â⦠cognitive substance [of religion] has not yet been totally exhausted.â
When approached from a naturalistic â“ rather than a faith-based â“ perspective, religion is puzzling.
Examining religion from multiple points of view, allows us to move beyond sterile debates for and against its truth. By thinking of religion as a collection of intellectual, imaginative, and emotional resources, we can constructively evaluate its purpose, meaning, value, and uses.
All, of faith or not, are welcome. Please note that these seminars follow a philosophical method of open, interactive enquiry which does not aim either to promote or to oppose particular religious views.
