Philosophy and Religious Studies
There are similarities between the tenets and practices of philosophy and religion. Religion is made more transparent and more straightforward to comprehend through philosophy. Religion may contain knowledge of philosophy and may provide the best intellectual defense of existence. Philosophy encompasses many different disciplines and fields of study, including but not limited to: ethics, political theory, metaphysics, history, psychology, and history of ideas. Students have the opportunity to investigate the paths that philosophers and religious traditions have taken in their quest for answers to life's most pressing existential problems through the Department of Philosophy and Religious Studies. We might be able to more deeply understand people's beliefs, values, and motivations behind their acts by studying religion, philosophy, and ethics. It may be beneficial to consider both our views and those of other belief systems that we may later be interested in learning more about.
