“Don’t All Religions Lead to God?”

When: Friday, 6.30pm
Where: Ramsey House

The Encyclopedia of Religion defines religion this way:
“In summary, it may be said that almost every known culture involves the religious in the above sense of a depth dimension in cultural experiences at all levels — a push, whether ill-defined or conscious, toward some sort of ultimacy and transcendence that will provide norms and power for the rest of life. When more or less distinct patterns of behaviour are built around this depth dimension in a culture, this structure constitutes religion in its historically recognizable form. Religion is the organization of life around the depth dimensions of experience — varied in form, completeness, and clarity in accordance with the environing culture.”

Man, I don’t know about you, but I got lost reading the first sentence. Anyway, this Friday we’ll be having a very intriguing look at religion, with James asking the question: “Don’t All Religions Lead to God?”

Spread the word, and do bring along some friends who might be interested! The discussions would probably not be as mind-boggling as the quote above, but it’ll definitely get you to think. So see you this Friday, 6.30pm, at Ramsey House (8 Kelburn Parade)!
