World Religions in the Global Society: Selected Readings helps students explore the origins, historical developments, teachings, and contemporary practices of some of the major world religions. The anthology highlights common themes, similarities, and differences within select world religions to demonstrate the diverse perspectives they offer to humanity. The readings examine the different ways in which religions interpret life and reality. They explore the lives, practices, and teachings of great religious leaders to highlight these individuals' unique philosophies of life. Students are challenged to consider what religion is, why humans are religious, the value of studying religion, and how exactly religion is studied. The anthology is divided into five distinct units that first provide students with an introduction to the study of religion and then explore Indigenous religions, Eastern religions, Western religions, and the future of religion. Individual chapters examine Hinduism, Buddhism, Chinese religions, Christianity, Islam, and more. Students consider the interplay of science, religion, and society, as well as new religious movements, including Caribbean Santeria, Wiccan beliefs, and more. World Religions in the Global Society is an ideal resource for courses and programs in world religions and religious studies.
