This course provides an introduction to the major religions that share a common belief in the God of Abraham: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. We will look at the history, beliefs, and practices of each religion separately, but also at the ways they have interacted. These interactions- sometimes peaceful and creative; sometimes violent- have been a major shaping force in western civilization, from the development and transmission of Greek philosophy through the Crusades, the Holocaust and the ongoing definition of "Western values". Study of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam leads to a deepened understanding of principles of theology and ethics, as well as current issues in religious and community life.
