Comparative religion: Investigate the world through religious tradition / Mooney, Carla; Chandhok, Lena (ill.) 2015  Book
Mooney, Carla Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication Canada, Nomad Press, 2015.
Description vii, 120pBlack spine
Summary/Abstract By developing a better understanding of the similarities and differences among religions of the world, readers gain a strong foothold in a dialogue that has continued for thousands of years. Combining hands-on activities with theology, history, geography, world cultures, art, and architecture, Comparative Religion encourages deeper understanding of the world's religions. Entertaining graphic art, fascinating sidebars, and links to primary sources bring the topic to life, while key questions reaffirm foundational concepts. Activities include conducting an interview with a rabbi, comparing the story of Abraham and Isaac in three sacred texts, studying the architecture of the National Cathedral in Washington, DC, studying the Hindu practice of yoga and meditation, and examining how religious doctrines shape the behaviour of believers.
