Extractions: Collection Development Policy: Religion Home Staff Library News OBIS ... Site Map Revised 6/94, Approved 10/25/94 by the Religion Department with few changes yet to be added General Collecting Guidelines Subjects And Collecting Levels Definition of Collecting Levels As a humanistic discipline, the study of Religion aims to improve human understanding of the history, traditions, literature, and social structures of a broad spectrum of religious cultures and traditions. The Religion major at Oberlin is designed to "serve as a focus of a liberal arts education for the general student and as a pre-professional foundation for those pursuing the study of Religion beyond the baccalaureate degree." (Oberlin College Course Catalog 1993-94, p. 239) The major consists of 27 hours of course work within the department. Current departmental emphases are on the study of works by major religious figures and thinkers and the history, philosophy, archeology, politics, and sociology of Religion. The curriculum in Religion at Oberlin has nine areas of concentration: American Religious History, Christian History, East Asian Religions, Ethics, Hebrew and Christian Scriptures, Islam, Judaism, Modern Religious Thought, and South Asian Religions. Courses in Religion are also cross-listed with other programs of study in the College such as Archeological Studies, East Asian Studies, Judaic and Near Eastern Studies, and Women's Studies. Since library collections in these interdisciplinary fields also support the study of Reli-gion, this policy contains a number of cross-references to subject statements for these areas.

Extractions: General Theory of Religion Homepage, version 6.0 Arlen Wolpert (Book manuscript draft of September 24,2005) (In this book manuscript, entitled General Theory of Religion (GTR), I am converting my three web sites, GTR version 3.0, GTR version 4.0, and GTR version 5.0 in such a way that the conversions will form a publishable book. Please be patient. It's going to take awhile to make the conversion from web sites to a book. Nevertheless, the book manuscript is fairly readable right now.) [If you are not interested in science, you may prefer to go directly to PART I where you will find my narrative of the last 21 months of my five-year religious crisis. That crisis culminated in purgation and mystical union. The narrative is at Chapter 1, which immediately follows the Preface and the Table of Contents. Chapters 1, 2, and 3 of PART I are all descriptive, narrative, and non technical.] Preface In 1962 I had what I believe was a sacred, ten hour, religious experience. This experience is known in the West as purgation culminating in mystical union (PMU). Later, my study of religions between 1962 and 1984 indicated that PMU is an experience central to most religions (see, in particular, stages 11 and 12 of Table I below). Therefore, I am hypothesizing that the experience of PMU is at the very essence or core of a general theory of religion (GTR). In order to follow up on the hypothesis given in the above paragraph, in 1984 I began a scientific analysis of my consciousness during the ten hour purgative stage of PMU. I conducted this analysis according to the scientific method: I recalled consciousness during the 1962 experience of PMU, using the causal loop diagraming technique from

Shlomi Tal's Metaphysical Naturalism Pages Advocates the worldview that the Universe is entirely natural, and critics theistic religions as general concepts and as particular worldviews. http://www.geocities.com/stmetanat/
Extractions: The atoms are arranged at no-ones behest! Metaphysical Naturalism the worldview that nature is all there is, and that the physical-chemical behaviours of matter are sufficient to account for all phenomena. Contrast with theism and supernaturalism in general, which hold that the material entities are not autonomous, but governed by an external agency outside nature. Metaphysical naturalism is one basis for rejecting the idea of a personal deity as described in various scriptures, and assuming the investigation of nature alone, and mistrusting revelation, as the key to understanding the whole affair. This site criticizes theism in general, and in particular the three monotheistic religions, Judaism, Christianity and Islam, and their respective founding scriptures, the Torah (Pentateuch, ), Hebrew Bible (Tanakh, ), Christian Testament (Gospel

Extractions: Monday, October 30, 2000 MONTREAT, N.C. – The session of Montreat Presbyterian Church has accused the General Assembly Council of a number of "delinquencies" in its response to the 2000 Peacemaking Conference where a Presbyterian minister said other religions provide valid paths to God. The Montreat session concluded that an Oct. 25 response by the council's executive committee to a similar complaint by the session of Highland Park Presbyterian Church in Dallas did not address the "delinquencies" or provide remedies. That response basically agreed with the theological assertion that salvation is through Jesus Christ alone but concluded that freedom of conscience allowed a Presbyterian minister to say otherwise at the Peacemaking Conference. to warn or bear witness against error in doctrine or immorality in practice in or outside the church by neglecting to correct the keynote address of the Rev. Dirk Ficca. [Ficca, who is executive director of an international inter-faith group that includes neo-pagan religions, asked at one point during his address, "What's the big deal about Jesus?"

Their respect for the wisdom of their elders, their concept of family responsibilities extending beyond the nuclear family to embrace a whole village, their respect for the environment, their willingness to share - all of these values persist within their own culture even though they have been under unremitting pressure to abandon them. " Mr. Justice Thomas Berger, Mackenzie Valley Pipeline Inquiry, (aka the Berger Inquiry). " Rather than going to church, I attend a sweat lodge; rather than accepting bread and toast [sic] from the Holy Priest, I smoke a ceremonial pipe to come into Communion with the Great Spirit; and rather than kneeling with my hands placed together in prayer, I let sweetgrass be feathered over my entire being for spiritual cleansing and allow the smoke to carry my prayers into the heavens. I am a Mi'kmaq, and this is how we pray. " Noah Augustine, from his article "
