Promo to Theology

Can you name any religious practice outside of those you are a part of? How did your particular faith begin and are there any commonalities between what you believe and what people believe on the other side of this planet? These are a few of the things you will learn in this fascinating study of theology.

Theology is essentially the study of religion but, as you will learn, religion has many faces, some of whom involve no belief in God whatsoever. How did we humans start believing in deities or gods in the first place and why do we still believe in God in today's time when we know so much more about the scary world out there than our prehistoric ancestors? The answers as to why we believe what we do may surprise you. In this course, you will learn not only what is believed by the faithful of this planet but also the context in which many of the major religions of the world began.
