World Religions Lectures Series 

Introductory Level Classes


A basic understanding of world religions is increasingly important in our society as we seek to create peaceful coexistence among people of all faiths and no faith.  In this short public series, scholars of Rice University's Boniuk Center for Religious Tolerance will explain the "basics" of major world religions. People of all backgrounds are welcome, and will find this class helpful regardless of any prior knowledge about religion.
