This lecture is part of a course from The Great Courses called Cultural Literacy for Religion taught by Professor Mark Berkson, Ph.D.. This course and over 300 other courses can be accessed with a subscription to Wondrium.


In this second lecture from The Great Courses course Cultural Literacy for Religion: Everything the Well-Educated Person Should Know, Professor Mark Berkson, Ph.D. discusses some of the common features of most world religions including God (or gods), scriptures, rituals, confronting good and evil, and the path to salvation. He provides examples as to how many world religions have these features which provide the groundwork for how he will examine the major world religions in the rest of the course. Dr. Berkson effectively communicates these facets of religion to begin a very informative course that will cover the basics of Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, Taoism, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and a few other religious traditions.
