Threskeía: Introduction to World Religions and Belief Systems

Textbook Series Description

Threskeía is a Greek word which means “religion.” This book aims to introduce to our young readers and fellow pilgrims, the major religions of the world. Undeniably, religion has immense power over the human person. The religious beliefs of human persons and the praxis of faith have signifi cantly changed — and continues to shape — our society and the world. In the course of your study of world religions, we invite you to keep an open mind and an understanding heart. While we are all encouraged to be steadfast in our beliefs and be faithful to our own religion, we are also called to learn the religious beliefs of other people. This is to foster greater harmony and establish lasting peace among our fellowmen.
