Introductory thoughts:
What is religion? There are many definitions for the term "religion" in common usage. On this web site, we define it very broadly, in order to include the greatest number of belief systems: "Religion is any specific system of belief about deity, often involving rituals, a code of ethics, and a philosophy of life." Thus we include here all of the great monotheistic religions, Eastern religions; Neopagan religions; a wide range of other faith groups, spiritual paths, and ethical systems; and beliefs about the existence of God(s) and Goddess(es). We recognize that most people define " religion " in a much more exclusive manner. Christianity There are many definitions for this term as well . Again, we use an inclusive definition: "

World Religions
Religion, History and Literature
Religion is more than just a belief in a deity. Religion is philosophy and a way of life. It can define who you are, how you view the world around you and how you interact within it. There are as many different types of religion as there are different types of people.
Some religions and beliefs you may know about, some may seem strange and some you've probably never heard of before. Hopefully the information provided on this page will help some people understand the beliefs of others and clear up misunderstandings that may have gone on for generations. You'll discover that people have more in common than you'd think.
I've written descriptions of some world religions to give a basic definition of some of the belief systems. The following links represent a small fraction of the world's religions, so enter with an open mind and explore.
Someone asked Master Yangqi, "When the founder of Zen came from India to China, he sat facing a wall for nine years-what does this mean?" Yangqi said, "As an Indian, he couldn't speak Chinese."
Descriptions of some World Religions
I wrote some of these papers many years ago in an Intro to Religion class, they were written as summaries of a chapter in "The World's Religions" by Huston Smith. Others were collected from other sources. If something is copywrited please let me know! Many thanks to Dr. Tony D'Souza for putting up with me in his class.
