A seminar that explores a topic in the philosophical study of religion. Possible topics include: the nature of religious truth; the phenomenology of religion; descriptions of the holy; religion and the meaning of life; God-talk as literal or metaphorical language; naturalizing religious belief. If the course is offered during the year, a detailed course description of the topic will be available under current courses in the undergraduate section of the Department’s website. As these courses are offered simultaneously as graduate level courses, students interested in taking them are encouraged to contact the instructor.
