Explore how religions are formed, their functions in society, and the forces that drive their evolution with retired SMWC Professor Dr. Patricia McIntyre. In this six-session course, Dr. McIntyre examines influential founders such as Lord Buddha, the Prophet Muhammad and his wife, Kadija, and the Prophet Abraham, tracing how their traditions developed and branched into faiths like Christianity and Bahá’í. This series also surveys Asian and Indian religions with ancient origins, as well as nomadic spiritual traditions. Through discussion and inquiry, this course delves into the complexities of religious belief, cultural influence, and the connection to the infinite.
