Critical Reflections on World's Religions is a survey of doctrines, scriptures, rituals, history and daily religious life of the religions of the East. This complements the extensive study students have already completed in Christianity and Judaism. This course focuses on the religions of Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam and traditions of China and Japan. The course is designed to provide the factual knowledge base necessary for critical thinking about the world's religions. Students are afforded the opportunity to appreciate the universal search for the Divine and the expression of human spirituality.
- Critical Reflections on the Theory of Knowledge in Philosophy and Theology, takes the motto of Servite High School: "I believe in order to understand" as the necessary background for examining critical thinking habits which inform faith. The course introduces the student to epistemology, the theory of knowledge, and the way truth claims are made. Sociopolitical & moral philosophy theories are studied to examine the implications of morality for social living. Students are invited to critically examine these theories in light of the Gospel.
